Gumbuz cut off a large piece of meat from the black bear and walked towards Agatha.
"How many chances do you have left now?" he asked.
"just one time."
"Then give it to me."
"But you don't want to be my attendant." Agatha Gray stared at him.
"I will not be anyone's follower, especially one that requires signing a witchcraft contract." Gumbuz emphasized again.
He raised his hand and handed three tied bear tails to Agatha.
"Let's do this. I'll give you a piece of witch gold. You use your last chance on me and let me choose an apprentice witchcraft that is not in the book."
Agatha Gray was moved, but still hesitant. Witch gold was extremely valuable. Apprentices like her only needed ten to fifty pieces of mithril to purchase witchcraft from the Moist Bone Forest.
A piece of witch gold is enough for her to buy several top witchcraft apprentices.
Or a complete witchcraft package that has been carefully matched and modified by the wizard himself. This can greatly improve her survivability.
If she adds her previous savings, she might be able to buy a level-level witchcraft.
What made her hesitate was the meditation method.
What Gumbuz wants is not the kind of rubbish meditation method that fools knights. What he asked for was the same meditation method as hers.
The meditation methods specially provided to apprentices in Shishibone Forest are equally common, but they are not comparable to those circulated in Wandering Corner.
If Agatha is willing to release the news, it will inevitably lead to a crazy pursuit. She can use this to recruit a group of capable and reliable knights and sign a witchcraft contract.
The so-called senior wizard apprentice is just a saying circulated between wizard apprentices and knights. In the eyes of wizards and the Shimobone Forest, there has always been only the difference between formal wizard apprentices and ordinary apprentices. As for the knights, they are just beneficial parasites in the wizarding society.
The wet bone forest gives formal apprentices the greatest resource, not witchcraft or materials, but the right to meditate on knights.
But even a formal wizard apprentice with a mentor cannot teach the meditation method he has practiced arbitrarily.
Not to mention Agatha Grey.
She also has to pay some price for teaching the meditation method of Shishibone Forest.
Gumbuz could see that Agatha was still hesitating, "You think about it yourself. Give me the seven pieces of cloud iron to settle this task first. I will go to see Leif later. He became an official wizard apprentice last week, just like you. . But... I think he hasn't used up three opportunities yet."
"Leif? You are overthinking. He will not give you his own meditation method." Agatha said firmly.
Gumbutz took out a piece of black metal with golden luster and mysterious patterns printed on both sides.
"I heard he's been short of money lately."
Agatha's eyes were fixed on Gumbutz's hand. The piece of witch gold firmly attracted all her attention.
"I promise you."
She sighed, feeling like she had lost an army of knights.
The corner of Gumbuz's lips curled up. In fact, he had already approached Leif. That guy was ten times greedier than Agatha. Not only did he want him to sign a witchcraft contract, but he also had to not refuse any dangerous actions in the next five years.
"Then, let's start now."
Gumbutz flicked his finger, and Wujin fell into Agatha's hands.
After Agatha Gray made the decision, she didn't hesitate and muttered a few syllables silently. With a crisp sound, a mysterious transparent light group lit up like a light bulb and shot towards Gumbuz at high speed.
Gumbutz moved, then endured it.
When the light ball fell on Gumbutz, a brand new knowledge poured into his brain.
Gumbutz stood there blankly for a while, then slowly a shy smile appeared on his face: "Well, I won't accept the reward for this mission from you."
Agatha Gray nodded.
This mission was announced to Gumbutz privately.
As his network expanded, Gumbutz learned that many tasks were not officially released through the platform provided by Shimobone Forest, but were circulated and digested among private individuals.
For example, for the task between Gumballs and Agatha, she needed the three-tailed bear, but she couldn't solve it by herself, or she felt that she was too inefficient, so she needed to issue a task, and every time she posted a task, no matter whether anyone took it or not , you have to pay two pieces of cloud iron, which is determined by the difficulty of the task. The higher the difficulty, the higher the release fee.
The party that accepts the task will also be charged a fee, ranging from a cloud iron to a mithril, depending on the difficulty of the task.
This task of private digestion has its advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that neither party needs to be charged by the Moist Bone Forest.
The disadvantage is that without identification of the Moist Bone Forest, it is difficult to say what will happen during the mission. The issuer does not pay and the recipient does not try their best. These are just trivial matters. The key point is that the authenticity of the task cannot be guaranteed.
"The oath will follow automatically. Don't even think about passing on the meditation method to others." Agatha Gray added.
"I understand." Gumbuz nodded.
Agatha Gray glanced at the piece of meat Gumbuz held in his hand:
"The meat of the three-tailed bear is not material and has no value."
"I know, I just took it back to eat, minced it into meatballs, and fried it in oil. It tastes great and tastes good."
Gumbuz lifted the bloody meat and waved it in front of Agatha.
Agatha Gray looked at his smiling face and felt inexplicably unhappy: "I gave you the meditation method this time. I have to complete a mandatory task. You have to help me."
"Is there such a thing?" Gumbuz was surprised, "What kind of mission?"
"I don't know yet." Agatha Gray shook her head slightly.
"Is it difficult?" Gumbuz asked again. If it is very difficult, then he should consider it carefully. After all, he paid a piece of witch gold.
"If we join forces, it shouldn't be a big deal." Agatha Gray was not very sure.
Gumbutz walked towards the outside of the forest,
"Okay, come find me where I live when the time comes."
Agatha Gray chased after her, "You don't want witchcraft anymore?"
"Of course." Gumbuz replied.
"Then I'll give it to you now," said Agatha Gray, rummaging through the bag.
Gumbuz stopped her, "I'll try to practice meditation first, and then I'll decide what kind of witchcraft I want."
Agatha Gray paused and said, "Okay. But I want to tell you, those top-level witchcrafts have curse restrictions, and I can't give them to you."
"I see."
...
Gumbuz flipped the meatballs, sprinkled some spices on them, and covered them.
Several apprentices walked by outside the house. They seemed to be attracted by the fragrance and stopped to look here.
Gumbutz pulled out a few pieces of red-hot coal and glanced outside.
It's not Anna. Anna should still be in class at this time.
He continued to watch the meditation in his mind.
The meditation method is not very profound, it is even simpler than the Knight's Breathing Method.
Because it does not require external objects such as swordsmanship to accompany the practice.
But meditation requires exaggerated concentration, communication with the soul, and forgetting all matter, including the body.
