Enfilea didn't hesitate; he seemed quite interested in Nolan, a peer not much older than himself. "I need to discuss this with my grandmother. You all can follow me for now."
With that said,
Enfilea turned and quickly ran out the Adventurer's Guild's main door.
"Let's follow him. It'll be good to meet the client," Captain Dosari said to his three other members, then looked at Nolan and chuckled heartily, "Together?"
Nolan nodded lightly.
Captain Dosari and Nolan walked side-by-side towards the hall's exit, with the other three team members close behind, subtly seeming to shield Nolan.
After Nolan displayed his healing magic, many adventurer teams were already stirring with anticipation.
At this moment,
The "Stone" team's actions made many surrounding adventurer teams curse under their breath.
At the reception desk,
The brown-haired girl, Daya, watched Nolan leave with the "Stone" team, a hint of envy and sadness in her brown eyes.
"He's really amazing. You can't tell from his appearance, but he's actually a faith-based magic caster. If only my younger brother..."
Daya muttered to herself, but soon a professional smile returned to her face as she greeted other adventurers.
Outside the Adventurer's Guild's main door,
A cargo cart was parked there. The somewhat old wooden trailer was piled high with goods, with wooden crates of various sizes at the bottom, and a layer of dry, straw-like plants spread on top.
As one approached the cart, a strong, somewhat pungent smell of herbs could be detected!
At the very front of the cart sat an old woman holding a whip and wearing a light green headscarf. She was Enfilea's grandmother, Lizzie.
Nolan and the "Stone" team members walked out the door and saw Enfilea talking to his grandmother, Lizzie. Clearly, he was telling her what had just happened in the Adventurer's Hall.
Nolan and the others didn't go over immediately but waited near the back of the cart.
They didn't wait long.
Enfilea walked over, a happy expression on his face.
"Grandmother agreed, Tang, you can come with us."
"However, Grandmother wants you to demonstrate your healing magic to her again," Enfilea said with a smile.
"No problem," Nolan said softly.
Compared to casually following any merchant caravan or adventurer team to "E-Rantel," accompanying Enfilea and his grandmother, who they knew well, was more reassuring.
What's more!
Enfilea's grandmother, Lizzie, was a magic caster capable of using third-tier magic!
Nolan followed Enfilea to his grandmother, Lizzie.
Her wrinkled face and white hair made her appear very old. Her expressionless demeanor and slightly protruding jawbones on both sides made Grandmother Lizzie seem difficult to get along with.
Actually,
Someone who could raise a person with Enfilea's gentle personality wouldn't have too bad a personality themselves.
"Where are you from? Black hair and dark brown eyes are quite rare throughout the Kingdom."
Grandmother Lizzie looked at Nolan expressionlessly.
Hearing this,
Nolan paused, this was not an easy question to answer.
"Never mind, it's a trivial matter. Cast your healing magic on this horse of mine."
Grandmother Lizzie narrowed her eyes slightly and pointed at the black horse pulling the cart.
The horse looked a bit old. On its back, near its neck, there was a visible depression, seemingly from years of pulling the cart.
The fur on its rump was also sparser, and a few red marks could faintly be seen.
"Alright."
Nolan didn't waste words. He raised his palm towards the black horse: "Lesser Heal."
The magic power he could clearly feel within him was suddenly drained by a large amount again!
A gentle white light was released, enveloping the black horse. The red marks on its rump were quickly healed and disappeared.
"Pfft!"
The black horse shook its head, snorted, and looked very comfortable.
Whew~
Nolan exhaled.
Although he didn't feel tired, his magic power was almost depleted.
The first-tier "Lesser Heal" required 5 points of magic power. Adding the time he demonstrated it in the Adventurer's Guild hall, he had already used it twice.
And his magic power was only 13 points, so even if he wanted to use it again, he couldn't!
Nolan glanced at the MP value on his status panel. From the first time he used "Lesser Heal" until now, not a single MP point had recovered.
The automatic recovery speed of magic power was much slower than Nolan had anticipated!
It was also possible that it was because he currently didn't have a magic-user profession.
Although the "Genius" profession could be converted into any basic profession, it clearly did not come with the attribute bonuses or effects provided by other professions.
"Hmm." Grandmother Lizzie finally nodded, a smile creasing her wrinkled cheeks. "The speed of returning to "E-Rantel" seems like it can be hastened a bit. Let's depart."
After speaking,
Grandmother Lizzie no longer paid attention to Nolan. She called out to Enfilea, and after Enfilea climbed onto the cart and sat beside his grandmother, Lizzie,
Crack!
Accompanied by the sound of the whip striking the horse,
The wooden wheels pressing on the stone bricks of the ground began to move with a "creak, creak" sound.
Nolan and the "Stone" team members could only follow closely behind; they were clearly not invited to board the cart!
Fortunately,
The cart, already fully loaded with goods, couldn't go fast anyway.
4 BC, May 17th.
Nolan left the Royal Capital on his second day of transmigration.
Within the "Re-Estize" Kingdom, most areas were primarily plains, while the north and west bordered the sea, boasting two large port cities.
The Kingdom was predominantly human, with a very sparse population of demi-humans. This was also related to the Kingdom's populace's aversion to other races.
It was said that in recent years,
The southern Slane Theocracy was at war with the Elven Kingdom further south. From time to time, Wood Elves would be sold into the "Re-Estize" and "Baharth" Kingdoms.
The price was quite expensive, generally above 300 gold coins.
These were ordinary Wood Elves. Some Wood Elves who possessed professional skills fetched prices exceeding 1000 gold coins.
It was said that such Wood Elves were completely sold as "living magical tools."
It had been three days since their group left the Royal Capital. This information was brought up during conversations between Nolan and the "Stone" team members.
The "Stone" team members also seemed intent on building a closer relationship with Nolan, so they answered almost every simple question he had.
Therefore,
Nolan also indirectly learned some basic common knowledge and information about this world.
There were no dangers along the way, perhaps because they were within the central region of the Kingdom.
After a few days of interaction,
Besides becoming somewhat familiar with each other, Nolan finally understood why Grandmother Lizzie, a person capable of using third-tier magic, would still hire adventurers.
It was to serve as labor!
The cartload of medicinal herbs she was transporting needed to be aired out for a period of time each day.
And the work of moving goods up and down was naturally entrusted to the "Stone" team. For this, Captain Dosari secretly complained to Nolan several times.
As for Nolan,
He wasn't idle either. During the times when the herbs were being aired out, and during the evening rest periods, he needed to use healing magic on the horses.
It wasn't just to heal the superficial wounds from the whip lashes.
According to Grandmother Lizzie, healing magic could not only restore injuries but also restore a portion of the treated individual's stamina.
This situation made Nolan realize that the performance of skills in the game was still somewhat different from the real world.
At the same time, through continuous magic power consumption,
Nolan also observed the recovery status of his magic power; it recovered about one point every hour.
