Chapter 726 For Life
Arrow didn't care if the business of the workshop owner in front of him would go bankrupt, he was just surprised at the fact he heard! At that moment, he directly reached out and grabbed Quint's wrist, and said nervously, "Are you sure?" Can Magic Affinity still be sold? I've never heard of anything like this! Doesn't it say that magical affinity is given to us humans by God? Is it a unique gift that everyone who has attained magical affinity is favored by God? And can those elemental spirits be resold like that? Elemental spirits are not real things...... This kind of thing can still be sold...... Or is it still transferable? How are they going to be transferred? ”
In response to Arrow's surprise, Quint continued to smile. He took a long puff on his cigarette and said, "I was surprised at first, but the high priest explained to me that they seem to be working on this technique lately. And through many experiments, some similar methods have been explored. ”
"Although the high priest didn't say anything to me, I had a rough idea...... I guess it's on that Lady of Light. The method of diverting the magical affinity seems to be to let the holy woman manipulate it. In other words, this method of transfer requires a lot of light magic to be able to do it. ”
Arrow lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, he raised his head again and said, "If your flame magic affinity can be transferred, then do you know who this power is going to be transferred?" ”
Quint's brow furrowed slightly, and he said, "Well...... I don't know. However, it is estimated that it is not those high priests of the Holy See of Light. The Holy See of Light pays attention to purity, if they were willing to accept magicians with affinities with other elements, they would have been contained a long time ago, and they would not have thought about transferring now. ”
In other words, this magical affinity is either used as some kind of raw material, or it is ......
Is it to transfer it to someone else to use?
Thinking of this, Arrow nodded slightly, and then said, "Boss Quint, the kind of thing you just said can make a lot of money in one go...... Isn't that what you mean? ”
Quint nodded lightly, with a slightly flattering smile on his face, and said, "President Arrow, actually, I don't know why a rich kid like you would run out to do such and such things, running a guild is really hard, I admit it. But at the same time, we should also fully consider that there are many things that we cannot change. ”
As he spoke, Quint turned his head and glanced at where the members of Mermaid Song were sitting in the lounge area, and said, "It's like those two girls, one is called Coco and the other is called Margaux, right?" The girl named Margaux has the magical affinity of the light element, a power that the Holy See of Light may not need very much, but one more is not too much. After all, there are indeed many extremely devout pastors in this world, and in the end they can only do a small clerical job. ”
"And that Coco, that affinity for necromancy is indeed rare, and necromancy is especially not a good thing for ordinary people...... In many books, necromancers are basically in the role of antagonists. ”
"The two girls have this power, but President Arrow, you should also understand that this power is not for them forever."
"As they continue to get older, as they get married, the magical affinity in them will quickly fade. I'm afraid that in another ten years, even they themselves will forget that they once had this unique honor. ”
"This is something that cannot be helped, it is something that has been decided a long time ago in this world. Women are inherently unable to carry this powerful power. So instead of waiting for their strength to decline and have no way to continue using it, and completely wasted it, why not sell them at a good price now while their magical affinity is still strong? ”
I have to say, Quint didn't have that look of disdain on his face.
On the contrary, the workshop owner's expression was very sincere, and he did not mean to humiliate anyone present.
Just listening to these words, the smile on Arrow's face flickered slightly for a moment. Even so, he managed to keep his smile on his face so that he could continue listening to the workshop owner.
"With such a faint flame magic affinity of mine, I can sell almost a thousand gold coins, so with the flourishing magic affinity of the two of them, I think it is possible to sell ten thousand gold coins, right? President Arrow, this is a lot of money that they will never see in their lifetime! I think it's really nice to sell something that will disappear anytime and anywhere in exchange for a lifetime of worry-free food and clothing. And with such a huge amount of money, it will not be a troublesome thing for President Arrow, no matter how luxurious and thorough the preparation is. ”
For this kindness of Boss Quinte, Arrow just smiled. But he didn't speak, just turned his head to look at the blue sky outside the balcony...... Well, in the rising smoke all around, the sky looks a little gray......
"Hoo ......"
He patted the guardrail lightly, then turned his head, smiled at Boss Quint, and said-
"Let's wait until our guild finishes this guild championship battle. In any case, there is only one magician and one priest in our guild, and without the two of them, the combat effectiveness of our guild will be greatly reduced. Well...... Then again, when are you going to sell your magic affinity? ”
Seeing that Arrow changed the topic, Boss Quint had no way to continue. Indeed, no matter what you say, the guildmaster is right.
At that moment, he nodded and said, "The day after tomorrow." In fact, I signed up for this decisive battle of the national war card in order to be able to enjoy the glory of the tournament one last time before selling my magic affinity. Alas...... I really want to say goodbye to my gift of God as a winner...... But if I speak so to the Assassin of your guild, I'm afraid he'll feel some emotional pity for me. After all...... I'm really short of money for business turnover right now......"
Arrow smiled slightly and said, "Boss Quint, if you are the day after tomorrow to transfer mana, I wonder if I can go with you and see it?" If you can really see the Holy Maiden of Light here, it will be a great blessing! ”
Quint thought for a moment and smiled, "Well...... I can't guarantee it, but I shouldn't have a problem taking you along. The day after tomorrow, or just like this, I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow afternoon, and then we'll set off together. ”
Arrow smiled, and that was the end of the conversation now.
After changing the subject and talking about some innocuous scenery and the like, Arrow deliberately covered his nose and coughed, and then returned to the lounge on the grounds that he couldn't stand the smell of smoke.
The members were also curious about what kind of money-making projects their own president had discussed just now, but Airo didn't say anything, just said that it was some "business secrets" and prevaricated everyone's mouths.
Resting and chatting, until the sun was almost setting, everyone ended this leisure trip and left one by one. And Arrow also made a random excuse to drag until the last one left, and waited until everyone was almost gone before tiptoeing back to the bathroom, putting on his old clothes and hat again, and then swaggering out of the lava bath.
Later, the group of Mermaid Song returned to the Great White Whale for dinner, and Arrow asked the Ironbeard boss about Viscount Ruichi, shrugging his shoulders helplessly after learning that the biggest sponsor had not yet arrived. But beyond that, he also got news from someone else who had come to inquire about his guild. If you inquire carefully, they are all bosses, chamber of commerce presidents and the like.
Needless to say, it's almost all about things that have something to do with Maas Capone's legacy.
Arrow didn't say much, and after dinner, he directly asked Brad to lead the way to the cheese who had been missing for a day and a night.
Brad saw that Arrow looked like he had already knew, and his face looked a little embarrassed, but Cream and Margaux hurriedly helped to play the round, saying that it was still early and that they needed to wait.
While waiting, the Floyd boss came as promised, had a good conversation with Arrow, and happily threw in the sponsorship fee - 50 gold coins.
Such a number is really insignificant in the eyes of Arrow...... But no matter how small the mosquito meat is, it's still meat, isn't it? At the moment, he also happily signed a sponsorship contract, saying that he would not waste the boss's sponsorship money in vain.
And so the clock went on until midnight......
"Let's go, President."
Cream tidied up his equipment a little and said solemnly.
Looking at the moonlight outside the window, Arrow also knew that it was definitely not an easy thing to greet him now.
At the moment, he also asked everyone to get ready, and everyone in the Mermaid Song Guild walked towards that destination together.
