Chapter 476 I Have Special Ways to Make Money
Curiosity about the unknowns was a special feature of intelligent creatures as well as an important behavior for them to learn more about the world. Almost all discoveries and inventions were made because of curiosity.
Therefore, Roland completely understood Murphy.
Murphy was probably thinking that, if the Golden Sons could come to his world, he should be able to go to theirs.
Theoretically speaking, one could go anywhere with teleportation as long as they had enough magic power and knew the magic beacon of their destination. They could even go to the Realm of G.o.ds and the Realm of Devils.
In fact, Roland had similar thoughts.
If this world was real, then he should be able to be teleported to reality with his character in the game.
However, there was still a big problem.
Teleportation required beacons. In reality, Roland could only use the simplified version of Body Fortification, and teleportation, which was essentially a level-three spell, was too difficult for him to use. Setting up magic beacons was a level-three spell too.
His body in reality was pathetically weak compared to his body in the game. Therefore, there was no telling when he would be able to leave beacons in reality.
However, since he was able to cast some simple spells in reality, he had finally made the first step.
Roland knew exactly how Murphy felt, but he refused to answer his questions. “Sorry, but before we came to this world, we had signed a contract that prevented us from talking about our world.”
Murphy frowned. “A contract with the G.o.ds?”
“You may think so.”
Since the system automatically censored certain words, the NPCs couldn’t hear it even if Roland spoke of the truth. Besides, it didn’t seem wrong to regard the system as a G.o.d.
Murphy seemed very disappointed after hearing Roland out.
Although he was a Legendary Mage, there was still a major gap between him and a G.o.d.
In order to get a chance to fight the weakest G.o.d, he would at least have to become a demiG.o.d.
Mordenkainen and Melf were the only two geniuses who were able to have head-on clashes with G.o.ds when they were still Legends.
It meant that it was impossible for Murphy to catch Roland and extract his memories with Soul Interrogation. No wonder the intelligence said that the souls of Golden Sons were protected by natural laws.
So, it was because they were under the protection of the G.o.ds.
Murphy heaved a sigh and left.
Now that the holiday was over, Roland continued his busy life.
Time always flew fast when he swam in the ocean of knowledge.
Half a year later, the lessons on basic magic theories were over, and lessons on Enchantment were added.
The new lessons made Roland, as well as Betta, even more addicted.
Few people in the Red Magic Tower were studying as hard as Roland and Betta.
Having been tortured h.e.l.lishly before the College Entrance Exam, they were completely diligent and concentrated when they were in their learning state.
While most of the Mages in this world were hardworking too, they would always spend some time on parties, banquets, and other social activities.
That was their instinct, deeply rooted in their n.o.ble blood.
When they were hitting on girls, Roland and Betta were studying.
When they were drinking and chatting, Roland and Betta were studying.
When they traveled to other cities for fun, Roland and Betta were still studying.
Besides, players didn’t need to sleep.
Roland and Betta had more knowledge than them in the first place. After the half-year, their knowledge on magic theories had soared. They also learned a dozen more spells.
That was not everything. Betta had gone up straight to level seven, and Roland only needed to fill the last fifth of his EXP bar to reach level nine.
Both of them had earned a lot.
Moreover, after spending more than half a year in the library, Roland had finally learned everything about magic arrays.
However, Roland was not in a hurry to conduct experiments on magic arrays. Instead, he pretended that nothing happened and kept reading books in the library.
Another two months pa.s.sed, and the final exam of the first semester began.
Everybody in the Ruby Cla.s.s pa.s.sed the exam.
That was not a surprise, because they all asked Roland whenever they had any questions, and Roland was always glad to answer those questions.
Thanks to Roland, the average expertise of the Ruby Cla.s.s was probably the best in history.
After the first semester was over, the Ruby Cla.s.s had a holiday. Most students rented a magic boat and flew back to their hometown.
Roland, on the other hand, stuffed lots of food in his backpack and waited for Marilyn to return.
Just like before, the catgirl was rarely at home.
“I’m going to be away from the Red Magic Tower for a while. Be careful, okay?”
“Can you stay, Roland?” asked the catgirl unhappily. “I’ll be scared if you’re not at home.”
Roland smiled. “Then how did you overcome your fear before I came here? Besides, you’re wearing the most expensive slave collar. n.o.body will dare to come to you for trouble. If you’re really worried, just stay at home more often instead of going out.”
Okay… The catgirl returned to her small building in disappointment.
Roland went to Betta meaning to ask him what he had planned for the holiday, only to discover that Betta was gone.
The guy seemed to have run off quickly and mysteriously the moment the school was over.
However, everybody had their secrets. Roland would rather not pry into Betta’s.
He flew out of the Red Magic Tower with Human Cannonball in a random direction over the continent that was full of red sandstone. After flying almost a thousand kilometers for half a day, he landed.
Through Stone to Mud and Mud to Stone, he built a three-story square building that had an extremely thick wall in the middle of the red sandstone.
The wall was two meters thick, enough to prevent the desert sun from delivering its heat into the building.
It was very cool inside the building.
