Chapter 74 School of Massimo
"Let's go to Blue Glory."
Roland took out the invitation from the bottom and waved it in front of Hela, speaking casually.
"The Massimo School that controls that city not only sent two pages of the Book of Wisdom, but was also the first school to send an invitation letter. We should give them some face first."
"Massimo School"
Hela said thoughtfully.
"As I recall, they seem to be a great school of transmutation that studies the element of lightning."
As she spoke, she opened the Book of Wisdom and found a public post about the School of Massimo on the official forum.
Although this kind of public post only has some brief introduction, we can still get a general idea of the Massimo School.
The Massimo School is a school that split from the Shaping School and specializes in the study of the transformation of the lightning element.
During the period when Littorio ruled the empire, the nine major schools united to form the highest ruling body of the Tower of Truth: the Council of Truth.
The nine schools are: abjuration, spells, divination, enchantment, evocation, illusion, necromancy, transmutation, and general.
However, as the Tower of Truth continued to grow and expand, various types of spells emerged one after another, the spells of the nine major schools continued to be refined, and members of the schools also formed small groups.
Moreover, after losing Littorio's mediation and the threat of external enemies, the contradictions within the school became increasingly serious.
Therefore, in the 137th year of the Silver Calendar, the Parliament of Truth passed the School Act, officially splitting the nine major schools.
The Massimo School was one of the first schools to split from the Shaper School.
Since the split, the Massimo School has become a large school with hundreds of years of history, independently controlling a large city, Blue Glory.
Under the rule of the School of Massimo, the Blue Glory was transformed into a city shrouded in thunder.
The current leader of the Massimo School is a male sixth-ring spellcaster named Noi Mamuti.
Of course, as a university with a long history, there are naturally high-level spellcasters within the Massimo School, but they are too lazy to manage the school's administrative work.
Therefore, Mamuti became the nominal leader of the Massimo School.
Of course, these are all public information on the forum, so they are not necessarily accurate.
Hela turned her eyes away from the Book of Wisdom, looked at Roland, and asked.
"If it's the element of lightning, is that appropriate?"
"Why is it inappropriate?"
Roland put the invitation letter back on the table and spoke casually.
“Hela, although I mainly taught you about dark elements, wood elements, and positive and negative energy, you also need to learn about other things. Otherwise, you won’t know how to deal with them in the future.”
Although Roland had thought about training Hela to be a full-service spellcaster like him, the cost and time of training were too long.
With this much time, it would be better for Hela to meditate more and improve her own strength.
After all, if the combat experience is similar, a first-level spellcaster, no matter how many and diverse he has learned, will most likely not be able to defeat a second-level spellcaster who specializes in one skill.
"I understand."
Hela nodded and continued to ask, "When do we leave?"
Roland glanced at the books piled up at the side of the room, patted his forehead, and said helplessly.
"Wait a few days. I still have some things to read."
Although the Starting City only has basic and low-level extraordinary knowledge, it is precisely because of this that the Starting City has the most knowledge reserves and types.
In addition to the various schools of thought that responded to the call of the Parliament of Truth and sold basic and low-level knowledge openly here, some low- and mid-level wild mages would also sell what they had figured out in order to earn some silver points.
Although these privately-developed things may not be reliable, they are cheap.
Therefore, in the City of Origin, all kinds of unreliable supernatural knowledge can be said to be extremely rampant.
Roland did not miss any of these things and bought one of each.
Although most of these private ideas had many loopholes, their wild, bold and imaginative ideas still gave Roland a lot of inspiration.
After all, the wild mage can rely on these theories to advance, so there must be something to it.
This kind of work of panning for gold in the sand can only be done by Roland himself. Spellcasters like Hela who are still in the learning stage cannot do this kind of work, otherwise they will be led astray. Therefore, the workload is a bit high.
Following Roland's gaze towards the piles of books, Hela knew that this was not something she could get involved in.
Although Hela felt that she could do it, since Roland didn't want her to get involved, she would obey him.
After Hela sorted out all the invitations on the table, she pushed them towards Roland.
Roland did not hesitate and directly put all the invitations into his bracelet.
Afterwards, Hela turned off the Book of Wisdom in her hand, put away the Grimoire, took out the study book from her bracelet, and silently opened it to study.
Roland stood up, walked to the refrigerator in the room, opened it, and took out a large bottle filled with green liquid.
Then Roland took two more cups.
After filling the cups with the green liquid, Roland closed the bottle that was about half full and placed it on the table. He placed one cup in front of Hela and one cup at his own place.
This is an alchemical potion that can only be purchased at the Tower of Truth. It can promote the caster's thinking and spirit and improve concentration to a certain extent.
Moreover, through continuous improvements, this alchemical potion called Liquid of Wisdom has changed from its original bitter taste to its current sweet orange flavor, greatly improving its taste.
Therefore, this alchemical potion tastes like juice and is more to Roland's liking.
Unfortunately, this is an alchemical potion after all, and the daily dosage is limited. It cannot be drunk like boiled water.
Moreover, its additional effects prevented Roland from drinking it as a daily beverage. Otherwise, it would be too uncomfortable to keep his mind and spirit active while resting.
In addition, although Roland knew how to refine this alchemical potion, some specific materials were only produced in the Tower of Truth.
Therefore, although Roland knew about the existence of the Liquid of Wisdom before, he did not refine this potion due to limited materials, and could only refine some inferior substitutes.
Roland took a dozen books from the pile of books nearby, and then he placed all the books in his hands on the table.
After picking up the cup and taking a sip of the liquid of wisdom, Roland picked up the first book and began his work of panning for gold in the sand.
