Chapter 106: Connections

After updating their current level information and handing over the collected intelligence, the three walked out of the central rune tower. Just after walking out, Amy couldn't help but sigh: "Okay, this is really an 'assessment'."

Jie Ming and the three found a relatively quiet corner. Figures in wizard robes occasionally walked by. The camp was filled with a unique busyness and urgency, as if every wizard was racing against time.

However, this atmosphere made Jie Ming and the three fall into some distress.

"So, our permissions are just these?" Victor frowned, his tone carrying a trace of unwillingness, "Can get supplies,

can trade materials, can even leave, but just can't take tasks. This means we still have to find targets like blind cats hitting dead mice before, the efficiency is too low."

Amy was also a bit discouraged: "Yeah, with our current strength, even if we are all promoted to Tier 1 Wizards, the frontal battlefield is just a small fight. The enemies that can be solved by us have contribution points, but for the entire plane campaign, it is simply a drop in the bucket."

Jie Ming remained silent. It's not that he hadn't thought about this problem.

For Tier 1 Wizards of their strength, the most suitable promotion method is usually to infiltrate the interior of various towns and countries in the Elosia plane, using the secret means of wizards to steal relevant intelligence and deep knowledge of this plane.

This information is crucial for the workshop's strategic layout and naturally can bring high contribution points.

However, the problem at the current stage is that ordinary Elosia intelligence and knowledge, such as basic language, customs, geography, and power distribution on the surface, have basically been collected by wizards who entered earlier.

If you want to obtain deeper information, you must infiltrate the more core and higher-level areas of this plane, or even the interior of temples or palaces.

And Jie Ming and the three are not specialized infiltration-type or intelligence-type wizards, and they are not good at this kind of high-difficulty infiltration combat.

What's more, for wizards like them who are good at research, the most suitable way to contribute is actually to sit in the rear,

research various novel materials sent from the front line and supernatural knowledge related to this plane.

Explore its useful uses, or find ways to restrain the supernatural beings of this plane.

If it were a higher-level wizard, they could even directly study the essence of the rules of this world and find ways to accelerate the infiltration of plane rules, fundamentally weakening the plane's resistance.

But the problem is—the time they came in is a bit awkward.

Materials and knowledge that are relatively easy to study and can quickly produce results have basically been studied by wizards who entered earlier.

The remaining ones are all topics that require huge energy and are difficult to have breakthroughs in a short time.

Just as Jie Ming and Victor were feeling embarrassed about the current predicament, Amy, who had been tapping on her communicator, suddenly brightened her eyes and let out a low cry.

"I know what to do!" Amy suddenly raised her head, her tone carrying excitement.

Jie Ming and Victor were stunned and asked in unison: "What way?"

Amy smiled mysteriously: "The camp here only blocked our task system and won't let us directly obtain task intelligence. But this doesn't mean we can't get relevant information from other wizards and deal with it to earn contribution points!"

Victor's eyes brightened: "You mean—buy intelligence with points? Or exchange with supplies?"

Jie Ming heard this, touched his chin, and nodded.

This method is theoretically feasible. After all, as long as it is not that kind of top-secret information, the workshop allows internal trading.

"It's a good method." Jie Ming also nodded, but then frowned again, "But the problem is, we are new here and are not familiar with this place. Most of the wizards in the camp are performing tasks, and even those resting won't easily trade the intelligence and news they collected to us apprentices. Who would take this risk?"

A confident smile appeared on Amy's face: "You don't have to worry. I, have someone I know here."

"What?!" Jie Ming and Victor were stunned almost at the same time, their expressions were uniformly shocked and incomprehensible.

Jie Ming knew that Amy was very good at interpersonal communication, but no matter how good she was, she shouldn't have expanded her connections here, right?

"Amy, how could you know someone here?" Victor was even more direct, his tone carrying a trace of disbelief, "Could it be a clansman from your family? But I remember your family—"

Amy waved her hand, interrupting his words: "Don't guess blindly. My family is very small, there are only three wizards including me, and none of them are here."

"Besides, do you think with my family background, I can directly know any useful high-level wizards in this kind of frontline camp?" She rolled her eyes slightly helplessly.

She didn't continue to sell the pass, but took out a crystal ball carved with complex runes from her arms.

This crystal ball emitted a faint blue light, exactly the Tier 5 wizarding tool she had engraved with the "Soul Search" wizardry model!

"The person I know is the senior from the academy who sold me this Tier 5 wizarding tool." Amy held up the crystal ball, her tone carrying a trace of pride.

A trace of doubt flashed in Jie Ming's eyes.

He knew Amy had this wizarding tool.

Being able to own a Tier 5 wizarding tool is almost impossible for an apprentice. Just the price of a Tier 5 wizarding tool is not something an ordinary apprentice can bear.

However, Amy made a fortune relying on the information he gave her during the trial in the academy, so she could be considered a person with quite a bit of wealth, so Jie Ming had never doubted her purchasing power.

But why can buying a wizarding tool keep in touch with the seller?

According to the academy's sales system, shouldn't this level of wizarding tool first enter the academy's warehouse and then be sold on behalf of the academy?

Amy saw the confusion in Jie Ming's eyes and couldn't help but remind him: "Jie Ming, not everyone has your permission to buy wizarding tools and knowledge of any level at will."

Jie Ming's expression stiffened slightly when he heard this.

He obtained the Tier 2 training agreement very early on, and all wizarding tools, materials, and knowledge could be obtained without limit as long as he had enough points.

Because he was too used to it, and he was in daily contact with official wizards, he had unconsciously ignored this problem all along.

Ordinary wizard apprentices can only buy knowledge and equipment at the level of Tier 1 official wizards before being promoted to Tier 1 official wizards. However, most wizard apprentices don't have enough points to buy higher-level things, so they really won't notice this problem.

Amy shook her head: "However, this assessment is unusual. Basically, everyone expected from the beginning that it would be a real-life plane war. So, apprentices like us are definitely trying every means to improve our survival ability and combat effectiveness."
