Chapter 1

Bang, bang, bang, there was a loud knock on the heavy door. In the small hut, Green, who was sleeping peacefully under the old quilt, was awakened instantly. The cold numbness under his feet made him gasp, but Green didn't dare Delayed, shouted: "Here we come."

Regardless of his feet that were almost frozen and unconscious, Green quickly put on his old clothes, picked up the leather jacket that was covered by the old quilt as a second quilt, and opened the wooden door. When the cold winter wind blew, mixed with ice slag, Green's irritated body shook. Outside the door, Old Ham curled up on the dilapidated wooden carriage, smashing it with a whip in one hand and a cigarette pouch in the other. The carriage left two tracks in the potholed snow.

"Hurry up, the road is not good today, and you will be punished if you are late." Old Ham muttered to Green after smashing a mouthful of his cigarette pipe.

"Oh, I see." Green closed the wooden door and got into the carriage swiftly. He was used to everything. Basically, since he took this stable job with Uncle Ham, he would hear him chanting every day.

Ham didn't have much to say. After smashing a cigarette pipe at last, he swung his whip fiercely. The old horse grunted and continued to pull the carriage forward in the potholed snow. Green, on the other hand, leaned against the railing of the broken carriage, looked at the dark sky, and closed his eyes again. Because based on past experience, it would take at least half an hour for an old carriage to arrive at the Viscount's Mansion in the city in this snowy day, and it would be almost dawn at that time.

Leaning on the carriage, Green smelled the familiar smell of dry tobacco, and was very grateful to Old Ham from the bottom of his heart.

Green was an orphan since he was a child, and he often wandered around Bissel City with a group of orphans, living a life of begging without enough food, until one day the old and childless Ham saw Green quite excited, thinking that he had no children under his knees, he put Green took it back and said with a smile: "I'm dead, these two thatched huts and the old horse are yours now."

To be honest, these two country huts and the old carriage are really not worth a lot of money, but Green is full of gratitude to Old Ham and regards them as reborn parents.

As for Old Ham and Green’s livelihood, they rushed to the Viscount’s Mansion in Bissel City every morning before dawn, cleaned up the large pieces of rubbish left after the carnival of the high-ranking nobles and lords, and sent them outside the city. Clean it up, then go to the Viscount Land to stock up on all the supplies for the next night's carnival.

This time, back and forth, almost half a day passed.

More than half an hour later, the road surface began to be smooth, and the ground was paved with stones. Green, who was dozing off in the carriage, didn't need Old Ham's advice, and immediately woke up. Knowing that he had arrived at Bissel City and was about to arrive at the Viscount's Mansion, he hurriedly swept the snow off his body in order to tidy up his appearance.

Although it is often said that when Green and Old Ham arrive every day, most of the nobles in the city who had a carnival night in the Viscount's Mansion have already dispersed. At the glance of a lowly servant, appearances are of no use at all. But the old butler of the Viscount's Mansion was a difficult character. He always made things difficult for the servants like Green, waiting for some benefits, and more than once blackmailed Old Ham's silver coins under the pretext of being disheveled.

The two tall and burly knight guards at the gate of the Viscount's Mansion were exhausted after a night of guarding. They glanced at Old Ham and Green, who had become too familiar with each other for several years, and ignored them. Old Ham smiled apologetically, while Green jumped out of the carriage and entered the Viscount's Mansion with his head down. He didn't dare to look more, and went straight to the luxurious hall that had to be carefully cleaned every day.

Green and Old Ham, who were originally listless, suddenly felt that the atmosphere today seemed different. They saw the old butler of the Viscount's Mansion at the entrance of the hall with a gloomy face, and a pair of fierce triangular eyes glared at Green and Old Ham fiercely. Going to the two of them, he shouted in a low voice: "Wait here, plug your ears and close your eyes."

"Yes, yes." Green and Old Ham responded quickly.

There was a faint noise coming from the main hall. Although I couldn't hear it clearly, I could vaguely tell that it was a girl who was making a scene. Instinctively, Green and Old Ham knew, it should be a big shot.

After waiting for about half an hour, the sky was completely bright. In the snow, Green and Old Ham were so cold that they stomped their feet and shivered. The old housekeeper who was waiting at the entrance of the hall came over with a gloomy expression, and said in a low voice: "Shou If not tomorrow, don’t come.”

Green and Old Ham's expressions changed. After struggling a few times, Old Ham took out a silver coin from his rags and stuffed it into the hands of the old housekeeper. He laughed and said, "I can bear it, I can bear it."

"Hmph." The old butler skillfully stuffed the silver coins into his pocket, ignored the two of them, and waited anxiously at the entrance of the hall, looking inside from time to time.

Green couldn't help but whispered: "Damn it, I just took advantage from us a few days ago, and now I want it again!"

"Hey, forget it, bear with it, there are a lot of people who want to do our job, and the old housekeeper would like us to go." Old Ham sighed. When a person is old and is about to enter the soil, he will no longer be as hot-tempered as a young person.

At this moment, a girl rushed out of the hall, wearing luxurious noble clothes, her delicate face was covered with tears, ran to Green and Old Ham, stopped, and shouted to the hall: "I just want my Ai!" Brother Long, I will not go to Lilith’s hut, let alone become a wizard!” After speaking, the girl seemed still angry, took out a book and threw it out, and strode out of the Viscount’s mansion.

"Inverted! Inverted! What are you two waiting for? Why don't you give me a quick chase?" A paunchy aristocrat flushed with anger, and roared at the two armored knights beside him, but let Green What was unbelievable was that the Viscount, who was usually aloof, had a face full of helplessness at this time, standing next to the big-bellied nobleman with an apologetic smile, trying to persuade him in a low voice.

"Hmph, what does she know? She gave up the wizard I hired at a huge price because of that little lover? You know, after half a year..." In a hurry, the Viscount followed the pregnant nobleman and left the Viscount's mansion without even looking at it. Green and Old Ham glanced at each other. As for the old butler, he followed out in the same hurry, took away the two guards before leaving, and disappeared into the snow.

In a blink of an eye, the yard became empty and there was no sound.

Seeing that there was no one around, Green instinctively wanted to pick up the book on the ground in front of him, but Old Ham stepped up, knocked Green's hand with the pipe, and shouted: "Don't die?"

Green grinned in pain, and said in a low voice: "It should be all right? If someone asks, we'll just say that we cleaned up the trash and threw it away. Anyway, it was thrown on the ground by the noble lady just now."

Old Ham thought for a while, then looked up to see that there was no one around, then nodded, acquiescing to Green. Green put the books into his clothes, and followed Old Ham to clean the hall as if nothing had happened. The huge amount of garbage left in the hall after the noble lord's night of carnival was swept into the carriage. Until before leaving, no one asked about the whereabouts of the book, and Green didn't care.

After all, in the past, there were often some treasures mixed in the garbage that the nobles didn't like, but the servants were very happy about.

Creaking, the carriage full of rubbish slowly left the city of Bissel. Sitting on the carriage full of rubbish, Green didn't feel sleepy anymore. He suddenly thought of something and took out the book from his arms. picked up books.

Frowning, servants like Green who work for noble lords are generally illiterate, but it is because Old Ham once worked as an accounting apprentice for a restaurant when he was young. Although the restaurant closed later, he also learned In order to learn to read, I have handed it over to Green in the past few years.

However, the reason why Green frowns is because the handwriting on the cover of this book is not commonly used in daily life. It is some unfamiliar words. After thinking for a long time, Green can recognize these words.

""Nose Hunting Transformation and Odor Atlas"? What is this?" Green stared, thinking it was a biographical novel of a bard. A noble lady threw a book with such a strange name.

and many more!

Green suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened, full of disbelief! Isn't this a book where wizards record mysterious magic?

Wizards have always been a topic that only nobles are qualified to talk about. Ordinary people will never even see a mysterious wizard once in their entire life. In the eyes of ordinary people, wizards master mysterious magic, full of evil and mystery. There are often rumors that wizards slaughter ordinary people in large numbers, even eat children's eyes, and use ordinary people to do evil magic experiments. But because of the extraordinary power of wizards who can easily kill ordinary people and even knights, they are great and awe-inspiring.

Even Green has fantasized more than once, what do those mysterious and great wizards rely on to master those mysterious and great powers? Why can't ordinary people master it? If I become a wizard and master those mysterious and great powers, I don't need to look at the faces of those nobles anymore, right? Anyone who dares to say that he is a pariah will kill him directly.

With an incredulous look on his face, Green quickly flipped through the book "Nose Hunting Transformation and Odor Atlas" he had obtained, and began to read word by word. Slowly, a shock began to appear on Green's face, as if a whole new door to the world had opened!

The so-called smell is to distinguish the volatile molecules of different substances in the air through the biological olfactory system. The most irritating odor accounts for half of the biological sense of taste.

According to the "Odor Atlas", normal human beings can distinguish about 30 to 400 kinds of smells, and occasionally some people with special functions can distinguish about 600 kinds of smells, but this kind of smell is different from other creatures. It's just pitifully low.

For example, the baby crowing chicken, a chicken-like creature that can cry like a human baby, according to experiments, this creature can distinguish at least 6,500 kinds of odors.

Another example is Yindie, a magical creature that can only survive by collecting odors, and can distinguish more than 8,200 kinds of odors...

It is mentioned in the book that the creature known to capture the most scents in the air is called the three-headed dog. This is a powerful creature that many wizards dare not provoke. There are a total of 17852 kinds of smells, reaching an unbelievable level.

"Nose Hunting Transformation" tells the story of the wizard's own physical condition, using the sensitive sense of smell of some creatures to transform themselves to achieve the perfect evolution of the sense of smell. The so-called magic experiment involves many strange materials, and so far Green has no Figure out the word that appears the most in books, cell?

"Green, Green!" After Old Ham yelled twice, Green recovered from the wonder of the magic book, hurriedly put away the magic book, and helped Old Ham start dumping the garbage on the carriage. After dumping all the garbage on the carriage, Green followed Old Ham to purchase the goods from the Viscount's territory according to the previous specifications, for the consumption of the nobles tonight.

Busy until evening, Old Ham and Green transported all the goods to the Viscount's mansion in the city, and then rushed back to the countryside with a dozen copper coins. Odor Atlas.

Old Ham glanced back at Green, sighed and said, "You child, you are really obsessed today. Is this book so good?"

Green smiled and didn't say much, but he was full of yearning and shock for this mysterious world of wizards. Are there really moving mountain life in the world? A river flowing from the sky? And what happened to those foreign worlds? What is the principle of wizards mastering powerful magical powers?

A series of questions came to Green's mind, but no one could answer them.

"Hey, you will be seventeen in a blink of an eye? Well, next year, I will renovate the house and see if I can find a girl from a suitable family nearby to be your wife. I hope my old man can take a look at his grandson before he is buried." .” Old Ham muttered.

Green muttered casually without raising his head: "What are you talking about? Your old man will live to be a hundred years old, and it will not be a problem to dominate the world."

"Hehe..." Old Ham was amused by Green, and continued to drive the carriage back to the familiar road. (About twenty or so chapters in the early stage of the work, there will be a few modern words, which have a slight influence and bring a feeling, but this is for some deep plot preparation at the end. In addition, this work has no story connection with "Wizard World" , the structure setting, power system, and even values ​​are completely different, so don’t bring them in with others. Maybe the general rhythm of the first dozen chapters is a bit similar to the senses, and you will know it after you arrive at the academy. But don’t skip it directly, because these plots There are too many pits in the middle, and the rest may not be understood.)
