Chapter 123: Special Shield

In fact, the alchemist is still very hard, his professional nature is equivalent to a one-stop service from the beginning of the designer to the engineer, and then to the later beautifier, etc., learning a lot of things are very miscellaneous, unlike in the previous life, there are many processes for an item, and each process has a special person in charge, so for this piece, Rowan is also groping.

Second-level magic items, the reward is not very high, each item is only about a few thousand gold coins, but it is better than nothing, Rowan is now mainly familiar with the second-level magic array, and after he is familiar, he will attack the third-level magic array.

In fact, Rowan can also directly do a fourth-level magic array, for example, the strong wall is a defensive formation that Rowan is very familiar with, and the effect is also very good, but if he wants to lay a solid foundation, he naturally has to start from a simple one, and he can't practice randomly.

There are not many second-level magic arrays, only hundreds, he is an extension of the primary runes, and there is not much difficulty, for example, the first-level magic array is one plus one, then the second-level magic array is one times one, the difficulty has increased slightly, and its essence is still the application of the primary magic runes, but it has slightly improved in terms of energy intensity, and some runes are a little different from the original, but they still follow the category of primary runes in the general direction.

After getting acquainted with it for a while, Rowan began to make third-level magic items.

The magic runes of the third level are slightly different, except that the strength of the runes in energy is slightly enhanced, the drawing method and application of the runes have improved, but after making so many magic arrays, Rowan also has some new ones, and he is also familiar with the drawing methods needed to enhance the runes themselves, which are not difficult points.

At this stage, the biggest difficulty is how to solve the problem of how to compete with other magicians for business, but alchemists in Yorkshire are still quite rare, although most alchemists can make third-level magic items, but limited by their magical tendencies, there is still business, and occasionally there are some things that are quite low in profit, other magicians don't want to do, or things that are too demanding, they can eat meat, and Rowan can still drink a little soup.

For example, once again Rowan went to the trading floor, and glanced at the entrusted column, he knew why other mages didn't want to deal with some lists, because these things were too obscure and too out of the category of ordinary magic items, and these magicians were too lazy to use their brains, so they naturally didn't want to take them.

However, in general, it is natural to have the appearance of a transaction. For example, Rowan accepted a commission today to make a big shield, but the client is a lady, he has some special requirements for the shield, Rowan read the request, directly to the trading floor request, called the client, he wants to ask in person, in order to facilitate the production. Talking about the commissioner and the production side, this way is not common, but it is not nothing, the request for this shield has been hanging here for a long time, and the magic guild has no face, and it is naturally best for someone to accept it.

In less than half an hour, the commissioner came, and they found an empty office on the second floor, and Rowan met with the female warrior.

This is a high-level warrior, about thirty years old, among the female samurai, it is a relatively young existence, the most remarkable thing is that her height is relatively tall, about two meters three or four, this height, even among men, is relatively outstanding, it can be called a giantess, sitting opposite Rowan, almost half a body taller than him. Her skin is exactly the bronze that Rowan prefers, but her face is very vicious, and she doesn't look like a good person, but from her eyes, it can be seen that this giantess is actually good-natured, and her eyes are very clean and firm.

Rowan sat on the chair, raised his head high, looked at the giantess in front of him a little speechlessly, and said, "I'm Rowan , an ordinary alchemist, I called you here this time because your shield requirements are too high, in order to completely satisfy you, I came here specially and let's explain the problem face to face." ”

As soon as the giantess entered the door, she saw Rowan, only surprised by his youth. Of course, she was only surprised, because in the magic guild, no one would definitely lie to him, and there was no point in these magicians deceiving her, and the other party would be sure that she could come.

Then the urn said in an angry voice, "Master Magician, what do you want to ask?"

Luo Wen said, "Don't be busy first, you sit first, I'm a little tired with my head up." ”

The giantess sat down slightly embarrassed on the chair opposite Rowan, and then saw that the little mage seemed to be prepared, took out paper and pen, and put them on the table.

Luo Wen said, "Your task requirements say that you need a big shield, how big it is, how tall it is, what shape, what kind of power you need to defend against, what direction of defense it is, whether it is a collision, a puncture, or a vindictive spirit... ”

When the giantess heard these cultures, she immediately knew that the other party must not be untargeted, if it was other magicians, she would definitely not ask about these things, and just do something casually, if it weren't for the fact that the guy she dealt with this time was too special, they wouldn't have put forward such high requirements, so she said her purpose very seriously, almost whatever Rowan asked, she said.

Five minutes later, Rowan looked at the shield pattern on the scratch paper and the various parameters next to it, and said with a frown, "I can do what you ask for, but in terms of remuneration, it seems to be a little lower." ”

The giantess was a little embarrassed, "Our team lacks one of these shields, but we don't have enough money, otherwise this task wouldn't have gone unanswered for so long." ”

"And you still don't lower the need for shields?"

"There is no way to reduce this, we have accepted a commission, we need to resist the attack of a third-level top demon, and if the defense is too low, we will die. The giantess said shyly and sincerely.

Luo Wen's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters.

According to what this giantess said, all the shields he made had cost more than 80,000 gold coins, in addition to the cost, his handwork, design, and loss, and he only earned 10,000 gold coins in the end, according to the rules of an alchemist, it was far lower than the profit of making it once, to put it bluntly, it just couldn't be done.

"Well, make a shield like yours, the money is definitely not enough, you go back and discuss, can you use materials instead, I need a lot of materials here, especially metal, if you can find the equivalent of various colored metals, I will take this shield." ”

The giantess was immediately overjoyed, "Then let's go back and discuss, in fact, we still have a lot of materials and something, all of which are accumulated from previous missions, some of which cannot be sold, and there are some other things in addition to this, if you need it, we can make a list and bring it to you." ”

Luo Wen didn't say a word, he directly threw a low-level storage bag over, and said, "Don't be so troublesome, just show me your mercenary medal, this thing can be borrowed for you to use, next time I come, bring the thing, I will inspect the goods in person." ”

The giantess was stunned, and then nodded in a panic, storage bag, their captain also has this thing, usually it is very expensive, and it is not shown to people at all, only when she goes out on a mission, she takes it out and carries some materials or equipment.

She was itchy and asked in a low voice, "Do you sell this storage bag?"

Rowan shook his head, "This is a test item, there is a problem, and selling it will affect my reputation." ”

The giantess suddenly realized that the test product is not a formal product, so it can't be used.

Taking the storage bag away, the giantess left the Demon Court happily.

The matter of Luo Wen's promotion to senior magician is quite low-key, except for the mentor and Dean Robert, no one else knows about it at all, so the Demon Court is the same as usual, quite calm, except for the first and second floors, which are very lively all day long, the other floors are like ancient castles without people, quite quiet.

Rowan was also quite comfortable, after going back, he did a few experiments in the laboratory, and early the next morning, he waited for the news of the giantess, and at the same time she also brought a burly man, but this person had a bitter face and was dressed quite plainly, it seemed that their mercenary team was really poor.

It's still that room, after the giantess finished the introduction, the president of the mercenary union directly took out the storage bag and handed it directly to Rowan.

The man's name is Tucker, as a high-level warrior who is about to approach the battle master, he has already condensed the prototype of spiritual power, and he can already feel the huge spiritual aura on Rowan's body, and he did not neglect Rowan at all because he was a child.

"Master Mage, this is the material we have been collecting, they are all not wanted by others, and there are some ancient items, do you see if you can offset some of the costs?" Tucker whispered, if this business is completed, then the strength of their mercenary group will be qualitatively improved, especially after killing that creature, the reward they get can definitely sweep away the previous haze.

Rowan glanced at the storage bag with his spiritual power, and pouted slightly, these things really no one wants, they are all very low-level things, the only thing that has a little value is a few metal ingots, and a few things that look very old, one is a tattered scroll, I don't know what it is used for, and the other is a small ding that looks quite old and I don't know what it is used for, but Rowan didn't feel a little magic fluctuation from this small ding, but he unexpectedly felt another power.

This power is very familiar, Rowan has only occasionally felt it recently, and it can only be felt when he calms down, and he has the strength to suspect that this is star power, but he can't be sure, but he just feels that this power is very compatible with his meditation method.

Thinking of this, Rowan made a small decision and said, "If you give it all to me, we can make this deal." ”

Tucker was overjoyed, he knew how valuable these things were, and he also knew that the other party might only fancy the scroll or Xiaoding, but no matter what it was, it was not something he could use, anyway, as long as he could exchange it for a good shield, then this thing would be done.

"Okay, thank you, thank you. Tucker rubbed his hands together and didn't know what to say, and glanced back at the giantess, and the joy in his eyes couldn't be stopped.

Rowan doesn't care about this little money, it's just that the other party's things do need to take a little time to conceive, and he may have to think a little bit about the materials, and he needs at least three levels or more magic arrays, and maybe multiple magic arrays need to be interconnected to achieve the strength that the other party needs.

After sending the two people away, Rowan returned to the laboratory and found that the elf was tinkering with something next to him, what seemed to be some magic solution, Rowan glanced at it, and then pouted.

The elf has recently gotten acquainted with Rowan, and has figured out his temper, as long as he works hard, even if he is greedy for fun in private, it doesn't matter, well, as long as he is not at work, Estonia thought so.

Seeing Rowan come back, the elf was startled, hurriedly threw away what he had, and hurriedly stood in front of Rowan, shy and timid, not knowing what to do.

Rowan looked at the elf who was a little taller than himself, touched the elf's head like an adult, and said, "If I'm not there, you can play by yourself, but don't break things, it's very expensive." ”

When the elf saw that it was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and quickly nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Master Rowan, we forest elves also have magicians to make items, but they only want beautiful appearances, and the effect is not as strong as that you make, but the items made by our high priest are very popular even among human nobles. ”

The elf remembered something and couldn't help but say it.

Rowan raised his eyebrows, "I know that the items produced by the elven world are often exquisite and sophisticated symbols, and they all have your special refining techniques in them, and we human magicians have also tried to learn from you in the past, but it didn't have very good results." ”

The elf was confused, in her heart, it seemed that as long as she learned, she could learn, there was nothing that could not be learned, is there any difference between humans and elves, it seems that yes, humans are very ugly, and the things that are made must be ugly. Elf thought so. However, when she saw Rowan, her impression seemed to change again.

"The owner doesn't seem to be pretty, and the things made are also very good-looking, doesn't this have anything to do with the appearance?"

Rowan didn't know what was going on in the elf's head, he was thinking about how to make this shield and what materials were needed. Back in his lab, he sat at his desk, scratching his ears and cheeks, writing and drawing.

"Sturdy, you need Chen stone, fine iron, toughness also needs to add a little, let's have some purple silver, other things, add a little 。。。。。 Rowan wrote down everything he thought of, and at the end he wrote down a lot of them, and then began to think about the suitability of the defensive magic array.

"Actually, the Solid Wall Magic Array is the most suitable, he is a fourth-level magic array, with enough defense and toughness, but the materials needed are too expensive, the magic solution alone needs to be close to three thousand gold coins, and the entire shield is almost unprofitable, and there are third-level magic arrays... With that, I can add two magic arrays, Resonance and Shock, and add some auxiliary runes to achieve this effect.

The biggest requirement in the giantess's shield is to have the ability to resist shocks, and the attacks of the demons they have to deal with have a strong concussive power, since it is the power of concussion, then naturally they can only fight poison with poison, these two defensive arrays that use shock defense and anti-shock ability are naturally very suitable, they are all level three, but the material requirements are not high.

"These two magic arrays don't need this thing, and they don't need that thing... Rowan picked and chose among the materials, and finally took into account the compatibility of the materials, and spent a full day, and then called the elf over.

"Estonia, you go and prepare these things, and then we start refining together, if you refine better than mine, I will reward you for not having to bring the forbidden ring in the future. ”

Estonia kept the things he had on hand, and then came to Rowan's side, picked up the list and looked at it, and immediately pouted, "Isn't this bullying, these are all third-level materials, let me refine it as a junior magician, it's simple." She had recently learned some of Rowan's phrases and they popped straight out of her mouth.
