"Remuneration? No problem! Dorne snapped his fingers, and a bundle of yellowed parchment scrolls appeared in his hand. It seems that this noble young master also has some kind of space to store props, and it is much more advanced than Gordon's dimensional bag, otherwise it would be impossible to take out the items in it so quickly.
Dorne unfolded a total of thirteen parchment scrolls: "These scrolls are more than two thousand years old, from the hands of a Grand Arcanist, Olo, during the Magic Empire of Netherduran in the Third Age. These scrolls contain many lost spells, as well as Olo's exclusive magical know-how. ”
Gordon's fingers ran across the surface of the parchment scroll, the bright silver Nesser text shining wonderfully on his fingertips. The unique touch of sheepskin grinds the skin, and Gordon seems to be able to feel the desolate and distant atmosphere of history in it.
It was a once mighty magical empire, a glorious time when great arcanists moved mountains and reclaimed seas, built floating cities, and ruled the sky and the earth, the main material realm, and countless subplanes.
The system also gives the specific properties of this set of scrolls: "Book Intelligence Requirements: 19. The intelligence test is passed guò and can be read. Current reading progress o%. Final Reading Gains: Arcane Knowledge +1o, Spell Identification +1o, Cast Focus +1o, Use of Magic Items +1o, Realm Knowledge +2o, Nature Knowledge +5, XP +6ooo, Gain Specialization: Nether Meditation. ”
Strangely enough, a third of the text on the scroll was obscured by a blur of magical aura, making it impossible to read the entire text.
Dorn explained, "The merchant who sold me this set of scrolls said that it was a special encryption spell that could only be unbroken with a unique password. The reason why this spell is applied on the reels is to allow only the buyer to read the contents of the reels, guaranteeing the uniqueness of the precious knowledge. ”
"So, since the knowledge recorded in this set of scrolls is so precious, why don't you learn it yourself?" Despite the impressive experience and skill bonuses that come with this set of scrolls, Gordon is not carried away.
"This ......" Dorne clearly didn't expect Gordon to suddenly ask the question.
Gordon added, "I'll help you answer." Because this set of scrolls is worth a lot less to you, to be precise, to all those who rely on the magic net to cast spells. During the time of the Ancient Netheran Empire, the goddess of magic Mystra had not yet been born, and naturally, the magic web did not exist in this multiverse. The Arcanists of the Empire directly extract the source energy and store it as the casting energy. ”
Although the ancient Nesseran Empire has long been annihilated in the long river of history, any mage has some understanding of that glorious history, and Gordon is no exception. He knew that the Grand Arcanists of the Netherland Empire did not rely on magic nets to cast spells, nor did they have spell slots, and they quantified the amount of source energy they could manipulate and use, and named it "Arcanes".
For example, casting a fireball spell costs four arcane powers instead of a three-ring spell slot.
In a sense, this is similar to Gordon's mana casting.
The magic system of the Ancient Nesserduran Empire is completely different from the magic system that is now built on the magic web. Therefore, the benefits that ordinary mages can gain from this set of ancient scrolls are very small.
But Gordon is different. He has a system, he casts spells based on mana, and this set of scrolls is almost as if it were made for him.
However, Gordon naturally won't tell Sù Dorn the truth. On the surface, he still had to pretend that the scrolls were useless to him.
"Well, my friend," said Dorne with a long sigh at Gordon's words, and touched his nose helplessly, "if I had half the sobriety of you at the age of twelve, I would not have listened to the rumors of that profiteer and spent all my pocket money on this useless scroll." ”
"I sympathize with what happened to you in your childhood." "But that doesn't mean you can trade these thirteen scrolls for the two enhanced Heroic Rings that I made. ”
"Mr. Gordon, I apologize for my earlier deception," Dorne stood up and solemnly bowed to Gordon. He took out another pale cyan hexagonal ring and said, "This is a wind spirit ring." It is inhabited by two wind spirits. With this ring, you can command the Breezy to do things for you. ”
Dorne put on the ring and whispered the password.
Inside, the breeze was blowing and the robes were flying.
Two medium-sized creatures appeared in front of Gordon. They have no facial features, only vague outlines of heads and limbs, and the overall appearance looks like a pale cyan humanoid wheal.
Wind spirits are elven creatures born in the winds of nature, the crystallization of wilderness spirits and free energy. They are one of the lowest elf creatures, with low intelligence and only a few basic commands. However, the advantage is loyalty and good obedience.
"These two wind spirits don't seem to be of much use to me." Gordon said. If it were two beautiful lake goblins, or two powerful rock golems, they might be able to impress him.
"Don't jump to conclusions, my friend. These two wind spirits are not the same. Dorne smirked, "Ado, Al, show Mr. Gordon a hand." ”
Dorne Lannister took out a full set of alchemy equipment and some materials, and kept the two wind spirits busy.
Gordon watched from the sidelines, his expression changing from initial calm and calm to dumbfounded. He witnessed the entire process of the two wind spirits producing an energy potion with great efficiency.
Dorn drank the energy potion in one gulp: "Ado, Al, your alchemy has improved again. ”
The two wind spirits made a "whirring" sound, as if in response to the master's praise.
"How is that possible? How could a creature with such a low IQ as the Wind Spirit complete such a complicated job as the preparation of potions! Gordon felt like his common sense had been turned upside down.
Dorne blinked, "Dear Gordon, don't forget that my surname is Lannister. Naturally, my family has some special methods to improve the intelligence of the Wind Spirits and train them to be the best mage assistants. They are loyal, industrious, tireless, and uncomplaining, and can assist mages in inscribe runes, draw magic circles, and make elixirs. And compared to humans, wind spirits do not make small mistakes such as misremembering the number jù, misplacing the material, and breaking a glass bottle. They are the perfect mage assistant! ”
Gordon's heart pounded. This Windspirit ring was so important to him. With two wind spirit assistants, whether it is the Male Wind Ring or the magic potion to be prepared to make zuò in the future, the output can be greatly increased. Not only will he be able to earn more gold, but he will also be able to free up a lot of time to learn spells and improve his personal strength.
"The scroll of the Grand Arcanist Olo, plus this Windspirit ring, we have a deal."
"No problem." Dorne replied cheerfully. The Windspirit Ring was not a rare item to him, the young master of the Lannisters.
"By the way, I have one more condition," Gordon said again, "I estimate that the material cost of making those two enhanced male wind rings will cost two hundred gold coins, and I hope that this money will be borne by you." ”
"Of course, it's only two hundred gold coins." Dorne patted his chest, looking like I was so poor that all I had left was money.
After the two made a deal, Gordon left the Amber Mask with the two hundred gold coins he had paid for the materials.
He deeply understood the meaning of the fable "If you lose your horse, you will not know whether you are blessed". If it weren't for Hao Lin's troubles, he wouldn't have made a deal with Dorne and obtained two items worth far more than Dazon's Plastic Energy Spell Experience.
Back at home, Gordon went to bed early, and he needed enough energy to make the two enhanced Male Wind Rings.
Early the next morning, he used the communication technique of a silver brooch to get Douro to send materials worth two hundred gold coins. Since the two rings he made were not sold for the "Douro's Treasure Chest", even if he was a partner, he had to pay for the materials.
It is not too difficult to make a magic item that enchants a spell. However, if you want a magic item to have multiple spell effects at the same time, then the difficulty of making zuò will increase exponentially.
The enhanced Male Wind Ring conceived by Gordon not only has the effect of local giant magic, but also blesses the brute force of the ox, the patience of the bear, and the grace of the cat.
Fortunately, the three spells of Ox Brute Force, Bear Patience, and Cat Elegance are only two rings, and counting the Giant Change, these four spells all belong to the category of the School of Change, and there is no conflict between the energy properties of each other. This also objectively reduces the difficulty of making zuò.
Gordon first spent money to buy three magic scrolls: the brute strength of the ox, the patience of the bear, and the grace of the cat. He learned the spell and mastered it before he began to create two rings.
He was buried between the magic workbenches for seven days. The burned hut of the cemetery had been rebuilt, and Gordon had to take on the role of grave keeper again. Time became tight, and he had to devote all his time except eating, drinking, sleeping, and working to making zuò rings.
The first Enhanced Ring of Virtuoso took five days to complete after several failures and wasting 5o gold coins.
With his experience, he was able to make the second ring in two days with the help of the "Item-based zuò and enchantment" subsystem.
With two rings in his arms, Gordon returns to the luxurious suite where Dorn in the Amber Mask lives.
In this meeting, except for the woman on the bed who was replaced by a forest spirit named Berlando, Dorne Lannister still had the virtue of the noble young master.
"This is the finished ring, you can pick one and try it out." In front of Dorne, Gordon unveiled two well-made enhanced male rings.
"I can't wait," Dorne said, picking up a ring and chanting the activation code. Then, four different magical rays of light came out of the ring and enveloped him.
