There was indeed a small library behind the door of light.
The reason why it was small was because it was only about 20 to 30 square metres in size. There were rows of wooden shelves along the wall, on top of which were some sparsely placed books. However, a faint glow could be seen on the surface of each book, as if they were protected by some kind of spell.
The number of Magi here was pitifully small. Only two Magi stood beside the wooden shelves, flipping through the books as if there was no one else around.
"Are you a Magus that just arrived? To avoid trouble, it's best if you wear your organisation's badge on your chest! "An old Magus sitting at a wooden table at the entrance of the door of light put down the book in his hands and reminded him with a frown.
It seemed that even in public areas, wandering Magi were still being investigated!
One could imagine that for evildoers like the two-faced Magus who were listed as wanted by the scattered Magus Association in Tallinn, they were also prohibited from entering public areas.
Grimm took out the crescent-shaped silver badge that represented the Salubo Family from his storage belt and pinned it on his chest. The old Magus in charge of this place was slightly stunned and said slowly, "The Salubo Family? He doesn't look familiar! Could it be that you're the Fire Demon that appeared recently? "
Hearing the old Magus' words, the two Magi who were minding their own business raised their heads and looked at Grimm carefully.
"Is there a problem?" Grimm asked doubtfully.
"Of course there's no problem! However … "The old Magus hesitated for a moment," I heard that the Salubo Family and the Black Hand Association are in conflict. A few Magi from the Black Hand Association are often active in Mota City, so it's best if you're careful when you go in and out! "
Seeing that the old Magus had good intentions, Grimm smiled and nodded at him before walking towards the bookshelf closest to him.
He casually picked up a blue sheepskin book with a hard cover …
'Gulliver's Travels'.
It seemed to be a journey recorded by an official Magus. Although it did not involve any advanced magic knowledge or theories, the description and records of some special magical creatures and plants still had a certain value as a reference.
The book was priced at 10 magic crystals.
Grimm put it aside.
This kind of book did not have much value, but it was still good to fill up the A.I. Chip's database!
Ji Hao then picked up an ancient parchment, which seemed to be a formula of some kind of magic medicine, highly poisonous. However, the refining process, material ratio, and precautions were all protected by a faint fluorescent light.
Price: 400 Mana Crystals!
Grim hesitated, then put it back.
In the short term, he had no plans to become a pharmacist. Moreover, this kind of physical poison formula did not seem to have much effect on wizards, so spending 400 magic crystals for it was not really necessary.
He picked up many books in succession, but most of them were extremely ordinary basic theories. Occasionally, he would find some improved spell models, but all of them were ridiculously expensive. Grim shook his head as he read. He browsed through more than half of the library, but he only picked out three books that were slightly valuable.
This was actually inevitable!
After all, this was just a public library of the Wizard Tower of Mota City. This was a place that only wandering wizards or those who were short of money would visit.
As for the truly valuable knowledge, it was obviously stored elsewhere, and it was only open to members of the Wizard Tower. Only people like the Black Hand Association, who had no foundation and were willing to make this their headquarters and take on some of the daily tasks of the Wizard Tower, could be regarded as a member of the Wizard Tower and become one of the guardians of the public area!
"Hey, kid from the Sarubo family, there seems to be a little girl looking for you outside …" The old Magus' voice sounded.
"Got it!" Grimm brought the three books to the door, and after handing over the magic crystals, the old Magus removed the protective spell formation on the books.
When Grimm passed through the door of light, he saw Alice outside.
The acolyte, Tolle, was not there. It seemed that Alice had sent him away.
"I've already booked a ticket for tomorrow afternoon. I'll be staying at the Broslan Inn tonight!"
After this period of interaction, Alice seemed to have accepted her fate, and was no longer as hot-tempered as before. Once she calmed down, with her intelligence as a quasi Magus, she would be able to help Grimm solve many unnecessary problems!
Following Alice to the inn, Grimm immediately ordered the waiter to send food and drinks to his room. He quickly recorded the contents of the three books into the A.I. Chip's database, and then continued to study the strange runes of the foreign world.
After receiving the old Magus' warning and reminder, Grimm also put away his plans to wander around Mota City, and did not take a step out of the inn.
That was until Alice and Kabi came to remind him that it was almost time to board the ship!
… …
When Grimm brought Alice and Kabi to the docking point in Mota City, a flying ship similar to the one from before was slowly descending on a highland green lawn.
There was no hot air balloon, and there was no propeller. The spacious bottom of the flying ship shone with golden light, and a faintly discernible spell formation was releasing strong and weak air currents, supporting it to land steadily.
The flying ship that Grimm had boarded last time seemed to have a pointed bottom, and obviously could not carry as much cargo as this flat-bottomed one.
Near the high platform, there was a crowd of people.
Heavy carriages filled with goods were already waiting here, and a large group of burly men were shouting and humming as they moved the goods from the hold of the ship, and then moved on new goods.
On the lawn around the highland, some people in Magus robes were chatting leisurely, as if they were also waiting to board the ship.
In less than an hour, the goods were all unloaded.
Hence, the Magi who were the passengers, as well as some people dressed like nobles, began to board the ship, and stood at the edge of the railing, waving to the people below.
Shouts and cries could be heard from the lawn below the ship.
Soon, as the energy waves from the spell formation at the bottom of the ship gradually increased, and under the cover of strong wind particles, the flying ship shook slightly and left the ground.
Looking at the gradually ascending flying ship, two Magi in a wooden house in the distance looked over with fierce eyes, their eyes filled with strong resentment and resentment.
"Lord, are we letting him go just like that?" A middle-aged Magus with a sharp face said hatefully.
"What else can we do but let him go?" The other Magus was the leader of the Black Hand Association, Green Dwarf Pyro. "This is Mota City, and it's not our place to be in charge. That old bastard already warned me that if I dare to kill visiting Magi in Mota City, they will refuse to provide us with protection. If that happens, that poisonous loach from Sarubo's family will probably want to swallow us whole. "
"That guy called Fire Devil is quite vigilant. He actually hid in the inn and did not take a single step out, causing some of our secret plans to fail. Did he get wind of something? "The thin Magus was still indignant.
"I already know that! Seems like it's also something those old bastards did. They secretly warned that kid! "Pyro's eyes flashed with a vicious light.
"Lord, you also have to be careful in the organization," the thin Magus said hesitantly, "I heard …"
"Heard what?"
"I heard that there's already an organization in contact with Fernand and Valir!"
Hearing this, Pyro was shocked.
He had spent more than 200 years roping in the six grade 1 Magi in the organization. Losing Mai Silan, who was the strongest among them, was enough to make his heart ache. If the remaining Magi were taken away by others while the Black Hand Association's morale was down, how could the Pyro family of his dreams be realized?
"What have you heard? Hurry up and tell me in detail … "
The two Magi put their heads together and began to discuss in low voices.
Grim, who was completely unaware of all this, stood at the edge of the ship, silently looking down at the scenery below him.
The flying ship rose higher and higher, and everything on the ground became smaller and smaller.
Even the towering Magus Tower that was originally so tall that it pierced through the clouds now looked a little slimmer, like a thick cigar stuck in a big cake.
Looking down from above, the area where Mota City was located revealed the greyish-white ground and colourful buildings. Around the city, there were large golden wheat fields and human villages that looked like squares. Just a little further, there was an undulating sea of green trees and a greyish-white path that looked like sheep intestines.
The path that humans had opened was winding, and from time to time, it would split into even thinner paths. From afar, these greyish-white paths looked more like blood vessels that grew out of the sea of green trees.
As the flying ship continued to rise, the surrounding temperature began to drop. The chilly wind whistled past, causing one to shiver uncontrollably.
Of course, such a small problem would not bother a Magus. A layer of faint red light appeared on Grim's body, and he became warm again.
Ever since he had chosen to specialize in fire, the other elemental particles had basically started to repel Grim. This also meant that it would be difficult for Grim to use his own strength to cast elemental spells of other elements, and he could only walk the path of fire to the end!
Fortunately, there were magic wands in this world. A magic wand enchanted with a water-making spell could prevent Grim from dying of thirst in the desert, and a magic wand enchanted with a flying spell could prevent him from falling to his death from the sky.
If all else failed, he still had magic wands of various shapes and forms in his belt that he could use.
Hence, even though he was hovering at an altitude of almost a thousand metres, Grim was not worried about his own safety.
He quickly got used to the scenery below, and it no longer attracted Grim's attention. Hence, he shifted his gaze to the deck of the flying ship.
