Chapter 80 New Village

"As for why you need to master this knowledge to learn magic, the reason is actually very simple: magic does not come out of thin air. Although the three goddesses of magic control the operation and rules of magic in this world, even if you do not believe in them, it will not affect the use of magic."

"Because the rules of magic itself are also a natural law, and the specific methods of use refer to history and religion, such as divine arts or sacrificial rituals. And understanding them is to understand the basic laws of magic, and only by understanding the laws can you use them better."

After that, Sylvia took Ron's weaving preface and checked it after Ron opened the authorization: "Look, these spells you have now are in all languages, and the symbols and activation spells you set yourself are also strange-although it can be seen that you have worked very hard to summarize them."

"This is basically the result of copying. You may feel that it's nothing now, but once you learn more spells, what should you do? Memorizing them all by rote is too much of a burden for a person."

Ron was embarrassed to say that the weaving preface could help him remember, and there was no harm in learning more, and with the power of the spell book, his learning on this would not be too difficult.

The team rested for a whole week. Ron and Sylvia almost never left the house. They ate and lived together, and devoted all their time except rest to tutoring.

Ron almost found the feeling when he was writing the thesis and defending it: he almost lived in the laboratory and the office next door. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't eat or stay overnight in the laboratory, he could move all his bedding there.

High-intensity learning, I'm used to it. And now there's no need for others to evaluate and judge, and no need for impact factors. I know whether it's enough or not, and the psychological pressure can be much less.

What's even better is that the vampires, like their blood relatives, don't need sleep. They only need four hours of meditation every day to restore their energy. He can ask Sylvia anytime and anywhere.

Then a week later, Sylvia was going crazy.

"I... have nothing to teach you," Sylvia looked at the calculation papers and drafts on the floor of the room with a distracted look, "I have learned more than ten years of knowledge, and you are about to drain me out."

This man's learning speed is amazing, and he doesn't need to review and consolidate!

Tomorrow, at the latest, she will have to teach Ron the bedtime fairy tale - this is too terrible!

Generally speaking, she, a vampire, is the one who often "drains" others!

"Then it seems that I can only go to find those spellcasters?" Ron picked up the papers on the table and bed with regret.

He now has two dark circles under his eyes, and his body is almost exhausted to the limit, but his spirit is extremely excited, and he is not even sleepy at all!

He spent a whole night yesterday to deduce the full set of theories of mirror shape magic and printed it on the preface of weaving. At this rate, Ron optimistically estimated that in two weeks, he will be able to truly learn lightning beams and no longer need that gem!

"It's useless for you to find them," Sylvia responded weakly, "I am the best one, and they can't even think about what I can't teach."

"If you still want to improve again, you can probably only go to the academy in the city-state or some kingdom empire to study."

"What a pity." He is obviously busy now.

"Yeah, what a pity -" Then she wouldn't have to suffer this.

When Ron and Sylvia finally appeared in front of others again, everyone who saw them was shocked.

"Benefactor, you are really this!" Seymour raised his thumb with a smirk, "Sylvia, you are not good enough, how could you be tormented like this by the boss?"

Sylvia rolled her eyes and didn't even bother to pay attention to him.

"Ron," Karad came over in a hurry, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Ron was full of energy, "What's the matter?"

"Just reporting the progress of the project," Karad said, "A new village has been built 25 kilometers away. As the project progresses, some vendors have begun to move to our side. After hearing that we are preparing to develop the Delusion Land, a merchant is willing to stay in that village and provide us with some supplies sent from the southern part of the Delusion Land - as long as we agree to exempt his taxes."

"This is good news."

"Yes," Karad hesitated for a moment, and then said, "But there is another piece of news that I don't know whether it's good or bad - an undead creature who claims to be a servant of the black dragon Exuri has been here before. After hearing that you are studying, she went to the new village and asked you to meet her when you have time."

"That will-o'-the-wisp?" Ron noticed that Karad said "she" instead of "it". Could this guy also tell whether the other person's gender is male or female from the skull?

"Willow?" Karad was stunned for a moment, "I think it shouldn't be. Maybe you can go and see it yourself and you will know what's going on. I don't know much about this either."

Ron immediately gathered his team members and prepared to go to the new village to see You first, and then set off to the mine.

"Are you sure it's okay to set off like this?" Ivy looked at Ron and then at Sylvia, "You two look like..."

Damn it! Is it because this woman is bigger? What's so good about vampires!

"It's okay," Ron shook his head. After the excitement, the aftereffects of too little sleep began to come up, but it shouldn't be a problem. Just hold on to the new village and rest for a night after seeing You.

It was just dawn now, and it would be afternoon when we got there, so the remaining time was enough for him to relax.

Seeing that they couldn't persuade Ron, the other members of the team stopped insisting and headed towards the newly built village after getting ready.

"I've been negotiating with several horse dealers in recent days," Victoria said as they walked on the still-flattened dirt road. "If they are willing to lower the price by another ten percent, we can have horse-drawn carriages traveling between the trading post and various villages."

"I think that's tough," Ivy said. "I treated them to a drink last night, and they said that unless you are willing to buy three more horses, they will never lower the price."

"Why do we need so many!" Victoria frowned. "Anyway, their pack horses can't be sold in Fromm Town, so why not give them to me!"

"You see, I knew it," Ivy shrugged. "But I got it: we will buy five more horses, and they will give us a 10% discount and a full set of horse gear. But we won't use the extra horses ourselves, but subcontract them to merchants and travelers, and we only need a deposit."

"Given our geographical location and the identity of the renters, these horses will most likely not be sent back again, so it is actually almost equivalent to us selling them at a higher price - I've seen this model in Rose City, and they will buy it."
