Advent of the Archmage Chapter 91: Boiled frog in warm water
Drack's room is on the second floor of the Bell Tower. He is an official magician, and he also manages the sale of Bell's medium and low-level magic items, so the treatment in the tower is still very good.
When Link enters Drak's room, he first sees a small hall with an area of more than 40 square meters. There is a large bookshelf on the side of the hall. There are many books on the rack. A few are magic books, others are poetry, novels, scripts, and so on.
For a magician, the number of magic books is the facade, so it seems that this Drak is not very mixed. Such a person has an inherent flaw, which is that he takes care of money and is easily confused by money.
Looking at it like this, Link knew that it would be very difficult to attack this Drak, maybe only a few weeks would be enough.
There is also a shelf on the other side with various crafts and magic materials on it. Link glanced, his eyes were slightly fixed, he saw a fist-sized thing that looked like a rock, but It is woody with a little dark green markings on it.
‘It ’s Lin Jing bulbs! ’
Linke recognized this thing for a simple reason, because in the description of the details of the spelling material appearance, the previous game and the reality are basically the same, and as the legendary peak mage, Linke has a variety of spelling materials. All are well known.
Lin Jing is a magical creature that possesses the characteristics of both animals and plants. It usually uses its own developed roots for breeding. As long as the root is buried in the soil and watered, it can grow only one. Lin Jing who can jump.
This is the essence of Lin Jing's life, which naturally contains strong magical power, and naturally becomes a good spelling material.
Lin Jing's bulbs have been regarded as intermediate spellcasting materials. They can be used by many magics. Most of these magics are neutral plant magics, but one of them is black magic.
It's called "Resurrection". As the name suggests, it is to bring the dead back to life and gain immortal magic.
However, such magic is already in the realm of the gods. Mortals are eternal, and they have already gone to evil. Unless he is God, he cannot succeed completely. Although he can obtain immortal life, there will always be such and that. The flaws can never be perfect.
It is said that Drucker is also responsible for purchasing various magic materials for Bell. The essence of Lin Lin needs at least level 4 magician to use it. He must not use it, it can only be used by Bell.
‘It seems that Bell has already begun the evil path. ‘Lin Ke sighed. As for the reason, it ’s very simple. Bell is over 60 years old. He ’s old, and he is going to die, but he does n’t want to die, so he can only study the black magic that can obtain immortal life.
On this side, Drak had no idea that a spellcasting material he accidentally put on the material shelf would leak so much news.
He already regards Link as his God of Wealth, and enthusiastically welcomes Link into the room, showing a slightly rusty intimate smile on his face: "Sit, Link, come and **** flame wine . "
Deep in his heart, he doesn't think much of Link's magical apprentice who came in through the back door. He even has some jealousy, but who can't get through with gold coins? In the face of the gold coins, Drark warmly entertained Link.
Linke sat down a bit "constrained", took a sip of the wine, and then "carefully" asked, "Sir, are you asking me for something?"
He looks like Druck in Drak's eyes, Drak has more control in his heart. He takes out a scroll, which is the secondary armor operation written by Link: "This is what you draw. ? "
"Yes." Link nodded.
"It's very well written." At least eight points of Draco's admiration were sincere, and his face showed a regretful look: "However, with such a perfect scroll, you can only get 1 silver coin. Remuneration, like ordinary or even inferior scrolls, is really unfair! "
Linke's eyes moved but he didn't say anything. Drak said so much. He must have his purpose. He waited for himself to reveal the mystery.
Sure enough, when Link reacted, Drak immediately said, "Do you want to make a lot of money?"
"Sir, what is big money?" Link was grammatically 'crampy'.
Drack hesitated. The green appearance of the other person reminded him of himself ten years ago, and he stretched out a finger: "A scroll and a gold coin are paid ten times as much as the original! If you If you can write 15 cards a day, you can earn 15 gold coins a day. Is this a big money?
Lin Ke's eyes are bright, he emphasizes: "Of course. What should I do?"
"You don't have to do anything. Just like now, just write the scrolls every day. You do n’t have to write 15 orders per day for orders. 8 sheets per day. The remaining gap , I'll add it for you. The other 7 are for you to write the new scroll I arranged for you. "
Of course, the order can't be delayed, but in order to make money, Drak doesn't care about his face, he is ready to complete some of the scroll tasks for Link.
"That .... Okay." Link seemed to 'think' and then nodded.
Drark obviously sees the commercial value of the scroll he wrote, and cooperates with him, then the two parties have a direct interest connection, which is the first step to closer relations.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. Now that the way has been opened, Link knows that the day when Bill's secret was revealed is not far away.
"Then I'll go back first, sir." Link looked ‘very uncomfortable’.
"Go. Remember, ordinary scrolls don't have to be so good-looking, those soldiers are big and old, and no one will appreciate your scrolls. But those good blank scrolls I gave you, you should try to draw It ’s beautiful. Also, do n’t get tired, you must pay attention to rest. ”Drucker told him.
"Okay, sir, I remember." Link left Drak's room.
After watching Link's back disappearing from the door, Drak couldn't help laughing: "This little guy is really a baby!"
This time, it is up to him whether he can save enough money and successfully promote to become a 3rd-level magician.
No words all night.
The next day, Drucker sent a stack of magic paper with excellent quality and the ink was replaced with the more expensive gilt ink.
Linke naturally lived up to his trust, drawing a magic scroll in his small room all day long, and when he was out of the room at more than 4 pm.
First hand the normal scroll to Warwick, then take the new scroll written with the best materials to Drak's room.
Draco was already waiting for him. As soon as he knocked on the door, the door opened, and the smiling face of Draco appeared behind the door. This time, the smile on his face appeared more natural. No, I didn't see that stiffness last time.
"Come here. Is this the scroll you wrote?" Drucker's gaze instinctively looked at the scroll that Link was holding.
"Yes, sir." Link passed the scroll in his arms.
Drack immediately picks it up, and then tells Link: "You sit and rest for a while, I'll see first."
He walked to the desk, took off a scroll, and spread it out carefully. When the scroll surface showed, he couldn't help but take a breath and his breathing slowed down.
I see, on the magic paper with thick natural light cyan wood grain, the smooth and mysterious dark golden lines move like an epic scroll on the paper. Among them is a simple and harmonious magic atmosphere Later, on the edge of the magic paper, there are many additional magic lines written. These lines are also elegant and natural, and they complement the lines on the paper, making the entire scroll full of a thick and epic sense.
Sophisticated, mysterious, heavy, epic, these feelings are combined to form an almost perfect scroll of magic.
A closer look, Drak also found that the lines around the magic paper are not just decorative, they are still an independent magic.
This is level 0 magic: constant base.
Its role is to maintain the original state of the object, and the specific effect will continue until the magic of the basic constant spell collapses.
If this scroll is regarded as a collectible, it will be properly preserved, then this basic constant technique is very likely to be maintained for a long time, good luck, and even be regarded as a heirloom.
"Perfect! Very perfect! Link, you are a genius for drawing scrolls!" Drack admired, he was worried about Link's embarrassment at first, but now he is completely relieved that these scrolls can definitely help him Make a lot of money.
Lin Ke nodded ‘uncomfortably’ with a smile on his face: “Sir, I ’ll go back first.”
"Well, let's take a break .... wait, this is 8 gold coins, it's the remuneration of this scroll, you take it." Drack settled the bill neatly, he was sure, as long as he took Out of these scrolls, arty businessmen will definitely buy at high prices, and this is no doubt.
Linke took the gold coins, gave a mage ceremony to Drak seriously, and then exited his room.
"This little guy is so deceiving, hehe." Drucker was very satisfied with Link's performance.
But he obviously didn't know that there was a sentence called warm water boiled frogs. When he got used to the speed of making money and got used to the new life brought by these gold coins, he would become inseparable from Link. At that time, his trouble is here.
