For Roland, it was the first time he had seen such an ugly humanoid creature, and he even felt that it was an eyesore.
Then, he decided to avoid it.
Although it was wrong to discriminate against other people's appearance, Roland really felt that he couldn't stand it.
Another reason was that this seemed to be the enemy's patrol route, so it should be their territory. If he barged in recklessly, there might be a conflict.
So, he wanted to avoid it for now.
But exactly at this moment, the patrolling murlocs suddenly stopped, and the one at the front sniffed, raised his weapon, and charged at him.
Roland was surprised. He didn't expect that the murlocs would really attack him.
But seeing that they were holding wooden spears and iron forks, he guessed that they were intelligent creatures, so he wanted to communicate with them.
Hardly had he cast Language Proficiency on himself when the murlocs who were running in a slanted formation let out loud cries.
And to Roland's ears, it was:
"We've found an ugly human. Catch him."
Hearing that, Roland almost choked on his breath.
Although he was plain-looking, he couldn't be considered ugly.
And what made Roland most speechless was that he was so depressed that he almost jumped to his feet when a bunch of real ugly people shouted at him like that.
He took a deep breath and was about to speak when he saw several wooden spears being thrown at him. At the same time, there was a large fishing net attached to the back of the wooden spears.
Roland snapped his fingers and teleported more than ten meters behind him.
Then, he activated a spatial bubble and flew away from the shore amidst the exasperated cries of the murlocs.
After flying for at least half an hour away from the shore, Roland rested for a while to recover his mana. He snapped his fingers and was about to use Long-Distance Teleportation.
But then he felt dizzy, and then he looked at his status bar, only to find that his mana had been emptied.
Long-Distance Teleportation failed.
This place was too far from Delpon, and he couldn't teleport back even if he used up all his mana.
He could only take out the Mind-Calming Necklace from the system Backpack and quickly replenish his mana. Then, he settled down in the stone building again.
After several hours of rest, Roland began to rush back with Human Cannonball. After flying halfway, he left a bridge coordinate before he could teleport back to Delpon.
After returning to the manor, Roland lay comfortably for a long time and had afternoon tea with Andonara and Vivian before he teleported to the capital.
Then, he found Tobian, the Bearlike Mage, in the Association of Mages.
At this moment, Tobian, who had convinced most of the members of the Association of Mages, was full of pride.
Roland sat across from him, looked at his bald head that was as bright as a light bulb, and said with a smile, "Although it's a little early, I still have to say, congratulations, Mr. Chairman."
Tobian smiled happily. "Thank you. Mr. Roland, you must have come for something else. Please go ahead. "
Roland didn't want to beat around the bush. "Master, you're experienced. What would you do if you wanted to cross an ocean?"
"Take a boat!" Tobian thought for a moment and said, "Don't even think about crossing the ocean with Wind Soaring or other flying spells. Almost all the Mages who did that died."
"Almost?" Roland asked.
Tobian nodded and explained, "As far as I know, only two people survived after crossing the ocean with magic. One was the Demigod Duncan, and the other was the Goddess Mystra, who hadn't become a god yet. Both of them crossed the ocean as Legends. "
In other words, the final result still depended on strength.
After all, it was the orcs' territory, and even if there were boats to cross the ocean, it was impossible for humans to ride them.
Roland thought for a moment and asked again, "Then Master, do you have any spells to recommend for resting in the ocean?"
Tobian scratched his head awkwardly and said to himself, "Walking on water? This is fine for rivers and lakes, but in the ocean, it would be a wonder if they weren't smashed down by the waves. Underwater breathing? That won't work either … there are too many large magical beasts in the ocean, and running into the ocean would be suicide. "
Tobian thought again for a while before saying, "If I have to say, there is one."
Roland leaned forward slightly.
"Mystra's Mansion." Tobian explained, "One of the three major spells created by the Goddess of Magic before she became a god. The biggest feature of this spell is that it creates a special 3x3x3 space in the void where Mages can rest. Until their magic power is completely restored. It can be said to be a must-learn spell for all Mages, but it depends a lot on talent. "
Roland's eyes lit up. "Sounds interesting."
"After coming out of Mystra's Mansion, the spellcaster will appear at the previously marked coordinates," Tobian said with great fascination. Tobian said in fascination, "This spell doesn't have any combat ability, but it's known as the best escape spell for Mages."
It was right to come here and ask the experienced people. Roland had no idea that there was such an amazing spell in the world.
"Then now there is only one question. Where can I go to learn such an amazing spell? What's the price? "
Tobian sighed and said, "I guess only the Monochrome Magic Tower, which specializes in spatial magic, has the spell model."
Roland was disappointed when he heard this.
Now he couldn't even find the Red Magic Tower, let alone the Monochrome Magic Tower that he had no clue about.
Looking at Roland's expression, Tobian continued, "If I have to say where else is most likely to have it, it's probably the Fareins Holy Realm."
Huh? Roland looked at Tobian and signaled him to hurry up and continue with his eyes.
Seeing Roland's expression, Tobian secretly chuckled and said, "There is a grand library in the Holy Realm that stores the books collected and offered by the believers of Light. There was everything, from biographies to spell models. I think there should be a spell model for Mystra's Mansion too. "
Roland stood up, extremely happy. "Thank you very much, Master Tobian."
"You have connections in the Holy Realm?" Tobian looked rather weird.
"Sort of."
Coming out of Tobian's Magic Tower, Roland found a nearby tavern and pinged Schuck in the guild system while drinking fruit wine.
Roland: "Schuck, are you still in the Holy Realm?"
A moment later, Schuck also left a message.
Schuck: "I just came back. What's up?"
Roland: "Help me go to your grand library and see if there's a spell model for Mystra's Mansion?"
Schuck: "After a while, I'll ask the Holy Lady. She's in charge of the high-level spell models."
Roland: "Thank you."
Schuck: "You don't have to be so polite between brothers."
About half an hour later, Schuck left another message.
Schuck: "There is, but the Holy Lady said that such a spell model can't be borrowed, and you have to apply in the Holy Realm if you want to read it. Also, I wanted to buy the book for you just now, but I realized that if I did that, it would be considered theft. My Divine Grace would be lowered, and my level might drop. So, you'd better come here yourself. I'll help you with the connections here.
Roland: "Got it."
