Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 85: The economic operation of the magic tower

Views:

In a blink of an eye, two weeks have passed.

Sitting in the corner of the hall as usual, Link focused on watching a level 4 magician on the podium demonstrate magic control skills. Many of these skills are things that cannot be found in books, and they are all valuable experiences. For Link Great inspiration.

His eyes didn't blink, for fear of missing a detail.

This magician is also one of Bell's students. His name is Darris, and he is Bell's chief disciple.

As a level 4 magician, he is also the most powerful magic mentor that the magic apprentices in the hall on the first floor can meet. The opportunity is very rare.

While watching, Link confirmed with his own feelings when casting the spell, and benefited a lot.

After one class, Link listened with satisfaction. Seeing other magic apprentices scrambling to go to the stage to find the magic teacher to answer their questions, Link listened to a few questions and couldn't help laughing.

It's all so obvious, these magic apprentices can't figure it out, they really don't know how they usually learn it.

He shook his head and walked to his room, ready to draw a magic scroll.

On the podium, Darius was very patient, answering the doubts of the apprentices one by one. He always had a smile on his face, without any look of impatience.

While answering, he caught a glimpse of Link in the corner of the hall from the corner of his eye, and saw that he had a calm face, completely lacking the enthusiasm of other apprentices, and felt a little strange in his heart.

' What a weirdo. "As Bell's most valued disciple, Darius certainly knew of Link's existence, but he didn't know much about it. He only knew that his mentor had received a letter from an old friend, and then agreed to send this 'untalented and taciturn' The teenager entered his magic tower.

'Magic requires communication. What effect can this person leave every time he listens? Darius is very strange, but he is very busy now, so there is nothing much to do. He plans to find a chance to have a good talk with this boy when he is free.

Link didn't know that he was noticed by Darius. After returning to the room, he sat down on the small stool in front of the bedside table, took out the silver ink and rune pen used to draw the low-level scrolls, spread out the blank scrolls, and took a deep breath , With a flash in his eyes, his spirit began to be highly concentrated, without any distracting thoughts. Then, he began to draw the Stone Thorn Technique.

When drawing, a complete stone thorn technique image appeared in his mind, and every stroke was extremely clear.

And that's not all.

When Link was fully focused, the image of the rune in his mind seemed to be in the field of vision in front of him. Under Link's control, the image overlapped with the blank scroll in front of him.

Afterwards, the rune pen in Link's hand only needs to follow the lines on the image to continue drawing, and the scroll can be easily completed.

About five minutes later, Link wrote the last stroke on the blank scroll.

The whole process was smooth and natural, without even a single pause in the middle, and it was done overnight. The lines of silver ink were even and full, and the magic energy flowing in it was gentle and quiet. On the lines, the radiance of magic energy began to flow gently like water.

As always, a hit!

Afterwards, anyone, even an ordinary person with no power, as long as he erases the activation rune on the scroll, the Stone Thorn Technique stored in the scroll will be activated.

Simple and easy to use, it represents a broad market.

Magic scrolls are a great source of income for magicians.

Link's current task is to make three magic scrolls a day. Through these two weeks of observation, he knows that it usually takes 1 to 2 hours for an ordinary magic apprentice to successfully complete a 0-level magic scroll. It may even take 7 to 8 hours for 3 scrolls if one or two are scrapped.

Therefore, for ordinary magic apprentices, getting three magic scrolls a day is a heavy task, but for him, it is extremely easy.

After drawing a scroll, Link continued to draw and completed 9 scrolls in one go, each of which was successful. It took less than an hour in total, and he felt a little tired at this point, so he put away his tools and rested.

Of the nine magic scrolls, he only needs to hand in three, and the remaining six are his own, because the free quota set by Drake is two blank scrolls, which means there are two chances of failure.

This is normal for ordinary magic apprentices, but for Link, it is a big loophole to make money.

After drawing the scroll, I rested in the room for a while, and then looked at the magic book. Of course it was not a basic magic book, but an advanced magic book borrowed by Verola. The book was called "Mage's Armor", which specifically introduced defense magical.

After experiencing Yaksa's assassination last time, Link is going to concentrate on studying the magic of the defense system, and then create one or two magic equipment for body protection.

Because it was in Bell's magic tower, it was inevitable that Bell would notice something was wrong, so he just read the book and did not conduct magic experiments.

After watching it for about an hour, Link suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a hint of inspiration for the thesis appeared, so he took out the thesis and continued to deduce it.

At this time, Link already understood that his thesis deduced the essence of space, which was very, very difficult. Link didn't expect to be able to finish it all at once, but he didn't intend to give up.

Although the progress of the thesis is getting slower and slower as the exploration continues, but he is always moving forward, and one day, he will get what he wants.

As soon as his mind was immersed in the thesis, two hours passed in a flash. About the time was almost up, Link put away the magic book and the scrolls of the thesis, went out of the room, and handed over the three stone thorn scrolls to the magic apprentice who was in charge of scroll affairs Warwick.

After coming for two weeks, Link has a basic understanding of the relationship between everyone in Moffat.

In the magic tower, magic apprentices have extra work besides learning magic. Some help in refining basic potions, some help in enchanting, and some help in drawing magic scrolls, and each project has a magic apprentice in charge.

Warwick is in charge of the scroll-drawing branch. As for the magician Drake, he is the overall person in charge of all the low-level magic item sales, and the heads of all branches are managed by him.

All kinds of magic props made by the apprentices will be sold for money. Of the profits obtained, the magician Bell will naturally take the lion's share, and the magic apprentices will also have a certain share, so this can be regarded as a stable income for the magic apprentices.

When Link appeared with the finished scroll, a smile appeared on Warwick's face immediately: "Well, it was completed in less than five hours? It's pretty fast, Link."

Warwick took the scroll with a smile, and when he put it away, he deliberately made a small mark on Link's scroll.

As one of the best magic apprentices, Warwick, who has just turned twenty, is already an advanced magic apprentice. He is currently learning the first-level elemental magic fireball technique. As long as he succeeds, he will be an official magician.

He is also considered a genius, and his vision is naturally good. He found that although the magic scrolls handed in every day were all successful, the quality was different.

Among the scrolls with the highest quality, a large part of them came from this rookie. The scrolls he drew are of excellent quality, the effect is very stable, and the magic power used is also very high, which is generally 20% stronger than ordinary magic scrolls. about.

The biggest users of this kind of low-level magic scrolls are those mercenaries who lick blood with blades. For them, a magic scroll with stable quality and powerful effects is worth buying even if it costs more, because this thing can save lives at critical moments!

Therefore, Link's scroll can currently be sold for 8 silver coins, and Drake stipulates that for every magic scroll sold, he only needs to hand in 6 silver coins, and the extra 2 silver coins will naturally belong to him.

Magicians generally lack money, especially low-level magicians. Link can make money for him, and Warwick naturally treats him very well. Some things, he just turns a blind eye. For example, every picture of Link He just pretended not to see that the magic scroll required three blank scrolls to succeed.

Of course, Link also knows the tricks, but this is a win-win situation. Warwick earns some price difference, while he makes more money by using the two blank scrolls and free silver magic ink within the consumption range. The two have a happy cooperation .

Who would think too much money

"It's not too fast, it took me an hour for this scroll." Link replied with a smile, and turned his head to leave.

He is now going to find Ailette to exchange his magic experience.

On this point, Darius misunderstood him. It's not that he doesn't communicate with others, but he is unwilling to communicate with these ordinary magic apprentices in the magic tower. reward.

"Hey, wait." Warwick called him suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Link asked.

Warwick looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he said softly, "Do you want to make more money?"

"Of course." Link nodded, he wanted to hear what this Warwick would say.

"Then I suggest you learn the two auxiliary 0-level magics, Secondary Armor and Secondary Sharpness. Good-quality auxiliary scrolls can sell for up to 12 silver coins (1.2 gold coins). You know, we only need Hand in 6 silver coins... We will share the extra income 50-50 at that time."

Warwick's words have been very clear, and Link's heart moved, nodded and said: "These two magics are not difficult, I will master them as soon as possible."

It's right to think about it, a fire bomb is a loud firecracker, what use can it be? For mercenaries, magic that assists physical attacks is the most practical.

As for the 50-50 split, Link also agrees, because the bulk of his money is not on the scroll that he turned in, but the two scrolls that he hid himself.

"I'm optimistic about you." Warwick is very confident in Link. Others may not know this magic apprentice and may be a little disdainful of him, but Warwick has a faint feeling that this taciturn guy is not simple.

Link nodded, turned his head and walked out of Bell's Magic Tower, and walked towards the Academy Square.

At this time, Ailette should have been waiting for him.
