"Master, there's a trap!" Bartoli whispered to Abel.
"What?"
"Although I don't know the value of magic staffs in this world, every magic staff is different. But you see, there's no mention of the difficulty of making magic staffs. It's just a matter of exchange. That's not normal!" Bartoli didn't know how easy it was for Abel to make magic staffs and magic weapons. She was just asking the normal question.
At that moment, Abel realized that he had only made a magic staff. He didn't have much experience, so he didn't think too much about it. Now that he thought about it, how could a low-level magic staff be the same as a high-level magic staff?
In fact, the wizard who issued this task didn't think of this. He just set the price according to his own materials. In his mind, it should be about the same value. Also, taking advantage of the fact that Abel had just come to Liante City and lacked credit points, he would definitely accept these tasks that he thought were convenient.
Originally, Abel was going to play in Liante City for a few days to see what the city called the center of the human race looked like. He also wanted to see what the house where his deed was. Now he saw the exchange items on the bulletin board.
Just like the wizard who issued the 3 blacksmith missions, Abel wanted to exchange for some things, but those things couldn't be exchanged with just a few credit points. They required a lot of credit points.
Like the tower spirit mentioned before, there was also a teleportation circle, a large-sized protection circle, a super-sized protection circle, a large-sized mana gathering circle, and a super-sized mana gathering circle. From the 6th floor to the 20th floor of the magic tower, each item was worth an astronomical amount of credit points.
For Abel, a teleportation circle and a large-sized protection circle were very important. If he could equip Harry Castle with a teleportation circle and a large-sized protection circle in Harvest City, it would be a great way for him to go to help or for the people in the castle to escape if there was any danger.
But was Harry's castle enough? Abel also had a territory called Matthew Castle that was now called Abel Castle. Although the Duchy of Carmel took it back, he was confident that he could take it back. There was also Bennett Castle.
A 6 floor magic tower cost 50,000 credit points, and that didn't include the teleportation circle. A teleportation circle cost 20,000 credit points, and a large-sized protection circle cost 30,000 credit points. That was a total of 200,000 credit points. By that point, Abel realized why wizards spent hundreds of years serving the Wizard Union.
The Duchy of Carmel had to pay for a 6 floor magic tower, and on top of that, a wizard had to spend hundreds of years to pay off the debt. This showed how hard it was to earn credit points.
"Bartoli, it seems like we need to earn some credit points!" Abel sighed.
"Master, are you saying we should accept this mission?" Bartoli asked softly.
"There's no need to rush. Other than me, no one else can take this mission. Let's head back first!" Abel shook his head. He didn't like the idea of asking him to make a magic staff through a mission.
As a human Grandmaster Blacksmith, he didn't care about making a magic staff for a human wizard. For example, if Wizard Lorenzo asked to make a magic staff for him, he wouldn't reject, even if the cost was not as high as what was on the board.
"Is this the good idea you were talking about?" Wizard Lorenzo pointed at Wizard Nigel and laughed.
"Don't laugh, maybe he will come and accept my mission in 2 days!" Although Wizard Nigel felt that the result of this operation was a little different from what he had imagined, he still argued back.
"I didn't prepare the materials. If I did, I would've gone to Guru Abel already. I wouldn't have to use this method. But I did mention it for you, so remember my favor!" Said Wizard Lorenzo with a proud smile. He had gotten a favor so easily. Next time, he would ask Wizard Nigel to be his helper when he needed help. He thought to himself happily.
Wizard Nigel was very depressed. He had already prepared the materials, but because of his face, he didn't try to build a good relationship with Abel like Wizard Lorenzo did. Instead, he directly used a mission to make a deal. Of course, he didn't want to meet Abel, so there must be something else.
Abel didn't know about this. He left the Wizard Union with Bartoli, took back his mount, and toured Liante City.
After a tour, Abel realized that it wasn't easy to enter the inner circle of Liante City. You had to pay 10 credit points a day to enter. Even so, there were still a lot of wizards who entered the inner circle every day, and there were even more wizards who stayed in the inner circle.
However, this didn't have much to do with Abel. He was poor now, and he didn't even have a single credit point.
"The Blacksmith's Guild is in front!" Abel said excitedly. That familiar style made him feel like he had seen his home.
"Guru Abel, welcome!" As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Blacksmith's Guild, a human servant quickly stepped forward and bowed.
Abel wasn't surprised that the servant in the Blacksmith's Guild recognized him. Ever since he became a Grandmaster Blacksmith, his portrait was held by all the Blacksmith's Guild members in the Holy Continent. All the staff members would ask to remember his face.
"Please help us take care of our mount!" Abel said as he jumped down from Black Wind. Bartoli beside him also jumped down from his Chocobo.
"Yes, Guru Abel!" The human servant didn't expect Abel, a Grandmaster Blacksmith, to be so polite, so he quickly stepped forward to lead the mount.
By this time, the news of Guru Abel's arrival at the Blacksmith's Guild in Liante City had already spread. When he walked into the Blacksmith's Guild, he could already see the excited blacksmiths waiting for him in the hall.
In the Holy Continent, other than wizards, most people would never leave a city for the rest of their lives. It was the same for blacksmiths in the Blacksmith Union. Not all blacksmiths had the opportunity to leave the city, and teleportation circles were not something normal blacksmiths could use.
Normally, even the Blacksmith Masters in the Blacksmith's Guild were hard to come by, let alone the legendary Grandmaster Blacksmith. Now that they had the chance to meet the top blacksmith in the industry, you could imagine how excited they were.
"What are you all doing? Go back to work!" A majestic voice emerged, and the originally lively hall suddenly quieted down. The blacksmiths all returned to their posts. After a while, the sound of hammering iron could be heard from the back of the hall.
"Guru Abel, I'm very sorry. These people have no manners. They're making a fool of themselves!" Master Joss quickly walked up to Abel and bowed.
Master Joss was one of the six Blacksmith Masters in the last master's gathering. Abel didn't expect to see him here, and he suddenly felt like he knew him.
"Master Joss, I'm also a member of the Blacksmith's Guild. I should be the one apologizing for not reporting to the Blacksmith's Guild as soon as I arrived in Liante City!" Abel's posture was very humble. Although he was a Grandmaster Blacksmith, he was still too young. The human Blacksmith Master in front of him was estimated to be over 50 years old, so it was very necessary to be polite.
Because of Abel's humble attitude, the two sides quickly got along with each other. After learning that Abel had just arrived in Liante City, Master Joss hurriedly said, "Guru Abel, every blacksmith above Master level who comes to Liante City can get a set of points. This is also to make it easier for Blacksmith Masters or Grandmasters to live more comfortably and eat better. This is the rule of the Blacksmith's Guild in Liante City. You don't have to refuse!"
"There's such a rule? It seems that I'm here to rob you today!" Abel laughed. The Blacksmith's Guild was famous for being rich, so he wouldn't refuse from this point.
"100 points for a Blacksmith Master, 1000 points for a Grandmaster. Take out your identity card, and I'll transfer it for you!" Master Joss also laughed. Although 1000 points wasn't a small amount, it was nothing for a Grandmaster Blacksmith. If Abel wanted to, he just had to call for help in the city, and there would be plenty of people who would deliver the points to him.
Seeing that Abel didn't refuse the guild's kindness, Master Joss was very happy. He didn't know that Abel didn't have any points at all. Even the food he ate was the worst, so how could he refuse the Wizard Union's kindness?
