Chapter Seventy-Nine: Helen

Knowing that Harvey needed a large amount of untreated diamonds, the jeweler Avry patted his chest and only charged for the raw diamonds. Half a day later, an employee of a jewelry store brought to the door a beautifully packaged wooden box filled with finger-thick broken diamonds that, if made into jewelry and sold in full, could be worth enough to declare bankruptcy to a wealthy nobleman.

The cost of raw diamonds is very low, and the price of a whole box of raw diamonds is 100,000 baluns and does not require Harvey to pay in a lump sum.

Avery also knew that the lion's share of the sales of "The Count of Monte Cristo" had not yet been sent to Harvey, who had only received the proceeds of sales in the city of Elroy, and that when Harvey received the proceeds of the national sales from Count Devon Henrietta, he would easily come up with 100,000 barrons.

In the [Alchemy Workshop], Harvey opened the delicate wooden box, and there were a lot of diamond raw materials inside, most of which were irregular shapes, and the color and clarity were far inferior to the body of the diamond fairy.

Harvey turned the wooden box to the diamond goblin and asked, "Are these diamonds okay?" "The diamond elf needs diamonds for food to stay in this world, and it is estimated that it costs at least hundreds of baluns a week, and Harvey is once again deeply aware of one thing, a qualified mage must also be a rich man.

The diamond fairy stood on tiptoe, stretched out her hands and scooped one out of the wooden box, obviously only the size of gravel, but it fell into her hands but it was the same as an ordinary bun, she held the diamond raw material in both hands and sniffed, opened her small mouth and took a bite directly, the diamond was like jelly being easily bitten out.

The corners of Harvey's mouth twitched, their teeth were really better than the other.

"Yes, it's very rich in flavor and complements the elements that make up the body." The diamond fairy bloomed a quiet and gentle smile, after eating the diamond in her hand, she connected her broken left hand to the broken place, a burst of colorful light came out, and her arms were seamlessly connected together, and she waved her left hand to make sure that she could use it flexibly.

"Do you have a name?"

The Diamond Goblin stood on the table and looked up at Harvey and shook his head, "Goblins don't need names, but as a necessity to be active in this world, you can choose a name for me." ”

The contract between Harvey and her is not a master-servant contract, it is simply something like a work contract, Harvey needs to pay the price of the elve's activities in this world, and the elf can choose whether to obey his orders or not according to his own wishes.

"Xiaobai?" Harvey teased.

There was no anger in the Diamond Fairy's smile: "Although I don't mind, I still hope that you can give me a more deliberate name." ”

Harvey thought of several common names and proposed, "Just kidding, what about Helen?" It means light, and it goes well with your hair. ”

"It's a great honor." Helen's smile was even sweeter.

Harvey looked at the diamond fairy's colorful hair and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Speaking of which, is your hair soft?" It looks beautiful, I mean it's diamonds? ”

Diamond Fairy Helen picked up a bunch of hair and said generously: "Yes, I am a diamond fairy, and my body is all made of diamonds, you don't believe that you can touch and feel it." ”

Harvey carefully touched the Diamond Elf's hair with his fingers, it was cold to the touch, and undoubtedly very soft, more like the nature of diamonds and jelly.

Talking to her for a while, Harvey has a basic understanding of the gem fairy, the main function of the gem fairy for the spellcaster is to conclude a contract to obtain the special ability of the gem attribute, the gem fairy is different from the regular goblin, there is a certain ability to work, but the efficiency is not high, unless after a long time of training, it is impossible to control the magic array or have assistance in the study of spell casting.

Fortunately, Harvey doesn't expect this, the special ability of the diamond elf is almost equivalent to a chance to save his life, and it is definitely worth burning money to support, not to mention that she can also act as a part-time nanny for Lily, a universal translator.

In addition, ordinary people can't see goblins, only children or spellcasters can observe their existence using special prophecy spells, and ordinary animals can also see them, but this is not good news, most animals will see goblins as prey. Diamond elves don't need to worry about that, their bodies are made up of precious stones, and a bite will only shatter the animal's teeth. Grass goblins need special care, and if they don't have protection, they may one day be eaten as food by the wild cats that come in.

Fairies have different personalities, most of the goblins are similar to children, gem goblins are more mature and stable, and the character does not represent their actual age, the life span theory of goblins has no upper limit, and a goblin summoned at random may have lived from the era when human civilization was not civilized to the present, so goblins are mostly very knowledgeable.

They are not interested in esoteric knowledge of spellcasting, but they do know a lot about history or literature and art.

"Click!"

Harvey opened the wooden door of the [Endless Library] and walked in, as if entering a magnificent and tall tower, the inside is a cylindrical space with a radius of more than ten meters, and the shelves against the wall are filled with countless books, and when you look up, you can see that the bookshelves extend far and far until the end of the darkness.

After activating the [Endless Library], Harvey found that in addition to spell books, it also contained all the books on the earth, and even the basics of computer programming could be found here.

Harvey opened the wooden bar and entered the platform, which was a lift, and when Harvey needed to find books on which knowledge, the platform would rise to the place where the books were stored. Harvey's mind moved, and the platform began to rise slowly, rising to a height of more than ten floors before stopping, and the bookshelves leaning against the wall displayed the two categories of "language" and "music".

Harvey looked around for a while, took down a few books and put them on the platform, the platform continued to rise, this time to an empty floor, the surrounding bookshelves were empty, only Harvey had a copy of "Nolan Bell's Prophecy Spell Basics Explained" in front of him.

[Endless Library] will periodically refresh a book that originally existed in this world every day, and most of them are spell books with a certain value.

Harvey took the spell book, picked up the book he had just taken and left.

Back at the [Alchemy Workshop], Harvey saw that Helen, the diamond fairy, was standing on top of a book, the thick book and her petite body were very contrasting, it was "The Count of Monte Cristo" that Harvey showed her yesterday, the fairy likes human literature very much.

"Helen?"

"Yes, Mr. Adrian... What do you command..." She turned around in a panic, her hands wiping away the tears from her eyes, and her sad look made her look pitiful.

- The goblin even cries...

Harvey brought the book she was carrying next to her, and saw The Count of Monte Cristo on the open table, showing that she had just seen the plot of the protagonist Edmund spending desperate time in prison on the ship.

Realizing that she had lost her temper, Helen blushed and was quite embarrassed, and her tone was sincere and admiring: "Your novel is very wonderful, and I have never felt that words have such a strange power, as if they can resonate with thoughts. I think Captain Edmond must have found hope in his desperate situation. ”

The plot of the first half of "The Count of Monte Cristo" is indeed very depressing, but the depression reveals hope, which only those who read this book carefully will feel.

For elves, there is no language barrier, they can directly understand any form of language and text, and because there is no dyslexia, they can understand all the ideas contained in the words more deeply.

"I'll give it to you, just read it slowly, these are the books I've found about music and the basics of language, and I hope you can teach Lily what music is." Harvey glanced at Lily, who was lying in the tank and spitting bubbles, and instructed, Harvey had the intention of cultivating Lily, but he didn't want to spend too much of his own energy, so it was appropriate to leave it to Helen.

Lily has Helen as a nanny, and Harvey can once again devote himself wholeheartedly to the study of illusion crystals, instead of staying in the [Alchemy Workshop] all day, a lot of time is given to the [Endless Library], where he can consult modern photography knowledge, which is very helpful to Harvey's research.
