Chapter 660: Life in the Mage Tower (2)

Ta Ling said: "Alchemy herbs, magicians who join the Mage Tower, even if they are preparatory mages, have a fixed supply of seeds every month, you can grow them for your own use, or you can sell them to the open store of the Mage Tower, or sell them outside, in the same way, you can also buy them externally, as for the experimental animals, there are Reiki Rats and Reiki Rabbits sold in the Mage Tower's open store, but it costs a little money, but you have special permissions, there are price concessions, if it is other varieties, you need to buy it externally." ”

Taling's words reminded me of the adventurer mercenaries who were waiting outside for the Mage Tower to issue a mission.

I said, "Money is not an issue, just go ahead and prepare!" ”

Taling said: "By the way, the members of the core organization have left you gifts, including alchemy plants and laboratory animals, as well as some equipment and coins, plus the funds you can use as a core member, now, the property that belongs to you is one hundred and twenty gold coins, if necessary, you can also temporarily store the coins brought from the outside in my vault." ”

I was a little surprised, but also a little touched - these seniors, who seemed very impatient, would still use this way to express their welcome and concern for me, so they said, "Then can I give them a gift in return?" ”

"Yes, but they are not in the Mage Tower and the Sage's Tower, and I can't guarantee when they will receive the gift in return, some may receive it immediately, and some may delay it for months or even years." ”

"Where the hell are they?" I asked.

"Their whereabouts are uncertain, some are adventuring on the main plane, some are exploring the otherworld, in short, outside the range of the mage tower, I can only hand it over to them when they return." Taling said.

I thought about it for a moment, took out a pile of gold coins, and said, "Please give them these gold coins, just say that it is my little heart, please don't be too little." ”

The gold coins floated up and flew out of the door in a line.

Taling said: "The patterns on these gold coins of yours are relatively unfamiliar, and they should not be the currency that is circulating in the main plane now, whether it is the dozens of currencies of humans, elves and orcs, or goblins, there is no such currency." ”

I said, "This is the currency of the time of the Orc Minotaur the Great." ”

"Then it's a little troublesome, if you still have a lot of these gold coins, you have to melt them into new gold coins, otherwise it will be difficult to circulate outside, and it will easily cause unnecessary trouble." ”

I said, "I'm not going to use them just yet, anyway, you said I still have a hundred and twenty gold coins, don't you?" ”

"Normally, these gold coins are only enough for you to spend a little more than a month, if you only rely on planting and breeding, it will be difficult for you to earn enough money to study and study magic, of course, there are many ways to make money here, and it is also the mechanism for the Mage Tower to maintain its normal operation." ”

"I understand," I said, "that magicians can't create wealth out of thin air, but what are the ways you say you can make money?" I'd like to hear your advice. ”

Taling said: "In addition to selling alchemy herbs directly, you can also make potions or magic items, the price of potions and items has always been very good, and the demand from adventurers outside is also very high. ”

I said, "I almost forgot, I'm an orc shaman, and it's not difficult to make some enchanted equipment." ”

"It seems that you don't have to worry about money," said Taling, "and then you can concentrate on magic." ”

I said, "Yes, but I have another thing that I need to trouble you to send someone out to do." ”

Taling said, "Please! ”

I said, "Send a man to my residence in the VIP quarters, and send letters to my friends Tia and Monica, well, by the way, a hundred gold coins." Well, there won't be a problem, right? ”

"Rest assured, there's no chance of losing your belongings!" ”

I walked up to the study on the third floor, looked at the room that was piled up with more than 1,600 books, walked to the desk, and wrote down the development plan of the Chinese cuisine restaurant according to Leo's dictation.

To be honest, the human quills were too difficult for me to use, and I felt that my words were a bit ugly, but fortunately they were not difficult to understand.

The letter flew out, and I was a little relieved, but Leo said with a fighting spirit: "The path of the mage, I'm here!" ”

At this time, the Tyrannosaurus rex cried out: "Mom, I'm hungry!" ”

I just remembered that I hadn't eaten lunch yet.

Leo was about to open the book, and I said, "Wait a minute, let's have a meal first......

Leo said depressedly, "I have ...... pants Ah no, go go, go! ”

When I came to the kitchen on the side of the hall, I was stunned for a moment.

Compared to the VIP area, this kitchen is a little strange.

First of all, the stove for cooking is rudimentary, and there is no water in the tank.

"Alphacom," I asked, "does the kitchen need to be served as well?" ”

Taling immediately responded: "I'll introduce you to the mage's special kitchen first, because I don't know your taste, I have prepared all kinds of food in advance, please open the cabinet next to you." ”

The cabinet was embedded in the wall and the door was wooden.

I touched the doorknob and felt the coldness of the meaning, and then, the door opened a crack, and a burst of cold air and obvious ice elemental energy overflowed.

The door opened completely, and I was surprised to see a cabinet made of ice cubes, with a few pieces of meat, two washed and peeled rabbits, and some vegetables and mushrooms.

"Magic Refrigerator!" Leo said, "I didn't expect that! But earthlings have long been used to it! ”

I was amazed at this method of using ice magic to preserve food, and quickly realized that it was a waste of energy, so I asked, "Isn't that too extravagant?" ”

"This is for a fee, and the energy is provided by the energy of the Mage Tower, but you have special permissions, which can be turned on and off at any time. ”

Again, special permissions.

I took out the pieces of meat and vegetables and said, "Then turn it off, just send fresh ones later, and don't waste them." ”

Leo said: "There's more to the fridge than just preserving food, well, I'm starting to miss the cold ......"

The Tyrannosaurus rex happily roasted it by itself, and I took out my own ingredients and prepared to make a pot of soup with vegetables and meat.

"Where's the water?" I asked.

"Open the plug in the hole above the tank." Taling said.

I pulled out the plug and clear water flowed out of the hole.

"This is pure spring water from the water elemental plane, and it doesn't require energy," Taling said, "just a spatial passage connecting the planes. ”

"It seems that the faucet has not yet been invented, well, metallurgy and rubber have not yet developed, and it is understandable," Leo said. ”

I know he has a lot of stuff and wants to move things from the earth, and I'm not in a hurry.

Anyway, he's busy enough for the rest of the day, so I just need to learn the magician skills in peace.

When the tank was filled with enough water, I plugged the plug.

Then, I threw the food into the pot, put it on the stove, and lit the fire myself.

Ta Ling said: "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome, there is also a fire magic array under the stove, which can be activated through the magic core, and the time can also be set, you can go away and be busy with other things, and you will be automatically notified when it is done." ”

I said, "No, this life is too comfortable, and I'm a little uncomfortable." ”

"Save time, you know?" Leo said.

Taling responded to me with something similar: "For magicians, it is better to save all this useless time and spend it on research, and the pursuit of truth and knowledge cannot be wasted, and as you can see, all the core members are very busy. ”

I said, "I'm not used to it yet, give me a little time, I really shouldn't waste time working hard for my goals." By the way, is it possible that these things can be applied outside the Mage Tower, so that ordinary people can also enjoy them? ”

Ta Ling said: "The cost is too high, ordinary people can't afford it, even ordinary magicians can't afford it, only wealthy magicians who have a mage tower can enjoy such treatment, after all, everyone's daily time is fixed, and when you are busy to a certain extent, if you want to free up a little time, the cost is much more than when you are not busy." ”

"It's called the marginal diminishing effect," Leo said, "and he's giving you extra tips!" ”

"I see." I say.

Soon, the Tyrannosaurus rex roasted its own meat and asked me if I would eat it, so I let it eat it on its own, and increased the heat to boil the pot.

When I finished eating, Ta Ling said unexpectedly, "The work of cleaning the dishes can also be done with a water system. ”

I put the dishes into the dishwashing sink that Taling said, and tried to input my water elemental energy, and the water flow formed a tornado-like vortex, and sure enough, I washed all the dishes.

Then I entered the wind element, and the dishes were blown dry by the warm air.

It's really, so convenient.

And Leo said: "I thought these things were waiting for me to invent them, but I didn't expect them to have already made them, it seems that enjoyment and saving trouble are one of the ultimate pursuits of people." ”

When I returned to the study on the third floor, Leo put away his nagging and began another round of madness

This time, there was no time limit, and he could watch it more enjoyable.

"Hahaha, this time, I'm going to show you how fast you can read after the brain domain is developed!" Leo said, "In Animo City, it took three days to read 2,000 villain comic book level books, which is too slow!" ”

I said, "There are so many books that you can't read?" Stop talking......"

He immediately stopped talking.

I took out a few books that I thought were interesting and sat down to read them, and Leo began to scan them frantically.

The book I read is called "Introduction to the Mage Tower", which is dedicated to explaining the structure, function and construction method of the Mage Tower, the selection of materials, and so on.

This knowledge is what I need most right now.

The Mage Tower, to be precise, is not a fortress, not a city, but a small kingdom in its own right.

Even, bigger. I want to talk about "Memoirs of the Bull Head" with more like-minded people; Talk about life and find a confidant~
