Slaying dragons is really a shortcut to making a fortune!

Steve glanced at the dragon's lair and saw more than 600 pounds of gold, but most of it was simply refined golden sand, and then there was a small pile of silver in the corner, estimated to be about 300 pounds, which should belong to the associated mine, and the white dragon didn't seem to like the silver very much, and it was not spread under his lair. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThere should be more quartz crystals here, and there are some other garnets, anyway, they are all types of low-grade gemstones, which should be collected by kobolds from various places. The most valuable trophy was probably the diamond box under the white dragon's head, and Stephen counted eleven diamonds of different sizes.

That's a great fortune!

An adult red dragon may not be as rich as this white dragon, and it seems that it did pick a good place to accumulate wealth.

Normally, the gemstones used by wizards are divided into three grades, high-grade gemstones include diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, alexandrites, etc., mid-range gemstones include tourmaline, jadeite, zircon, spinel, etc., and low-grade gemstones are more common such as topaz, amethyst, peridot, citrine and so on.

Although their quality can lead to differences in their value, in general, the purer and larger the gemstone, the more popular it is.

Especially for gems used in enchantments, the less impurities the better!

This is also the reason why the enchanted ring is the most expensive among the magic props, and basically the price of ring-type props has always been high.

Stephen cleaned up the valuable loot in the dragon's lair, but unfortunately a young white dragon was not yet capable of collecting magic items, and most of them were ordinary materials. Taking advantage of the fact that the white dragon had just died, Stephen took out a sharp dagger and broke open its corpse, he dug out the white dragon's heart, and then carefully packed the essence blood in the heart into a crystal bottle. There was no need for the other dragons to be so troublesome, and Stephen threw the white dragon into the storage space.

"It's a pity!

Stephen looked at the white dragon's head and sighed a little disappointed.

The birth of dragon crystals is not stable, some dragons have it in their bodies, some dragons do not have it at all, usually dragons with cast levels are more likely to give birth to dragon crystals in their bodies, and white dragons do not have a formal cast level until adulthood. To put it bluntly, Dragon Crystal is a kind of energy crystallization, which is very close to the soul crystal in nature, and powerful human spellcasters can also extract similar things (devil's abilities). If Stephen regains the strength of the legendary wizard, he can use spells to make an artificial dragon crystal, but then all the energy essence of the white dragon's corpse will be ingested into the dragon crystal, and the entire dragon's corpse will be turned into waste.

Inside the multiverse, the creature that is most likely to give birth to dragon crystals is the dragon lich.

In many cases, there is no need for spell ingestion at all, and the soul power of a dragon lich that dissipates upon death may automatically form a dragon crystal.

"Now I have the material to transcribe the spell scroll. ”

The white dragon is not excellent in terms of the quality of the dragon's blood alone, but it is still easy to transcribe spells below the six rings, and such a white dragon can be used for a long time as long as it is well preserved.

..................

Stephen was in a happy mood after leaving the Dragon's Lair.

This trip to Dragon City can be said to be a bumper harvest, and now that he goes back to dig up that gold mine, the purpose of his trip is almost complete.

The kobolds of the entire camp had fled, their fear of wizards so deep that they had scrambled away and fled elsewhere. Stephen wasn't interested in hunting down these little things, and there was nothing oil and water on the kobolds. And just as Stephen left the camp, Senkin, who had been knocked unconscious in the corner, also woke up, first looked around blankly, and then ran towards the dragon's lair with a big change in face. The entire dragon's lair was empty, only for some undried blood on the ground, and Senjin sat down a little dejectedly, and then his eyes jumped up with a glow.

"Senkin...... It's mine!...... Over here!...... Sheik!...... Senkin is going to be a chief......" The kobold ran out excitedly.

It is ready to find a way to retrieve some of its companions and then fulfill its ambition to become a chieftain.

Salted fish also have dreams!

Stephen followed the same path back to the gold vein, but as he approached the mushroom grove, he heard a strange noise.

"Huh?"

"There are footprints here! Looks like they just left!"

Stephen frowned and looked at the marks on the ground, then walked around a tunnel and saw a huge corpse.

Claw.

A monster with a head that looks like a velociraptor but walks upright and has limbs, an adult claw monster is three meters tall and weighs 500 pounds, and its claws can tear through metal, making it one of the most dangerous killers in the underground ranks. In the dark, this kind of monster can easily ambush and kill a mercenary team, although it is not as powerful as the white dragon just now, but it is still possible to pass the trick.

"It was killed by a spell!"

The claw's corpse had many wounds, mostly from the sword, but the deadliest one was indeed the hole in its head, with strong acid corroding its skull.

Stephen stood up and muttered, "Are there any other Native wizards coming?"

Not surprising.

With so many strange situations happening here in the mines, it's normal for nobles to find a way to hire a wizard to clean up the mess.

"This is an official wizard. Not an apprentice-level spellcaster. "Stephen has learned a lot about this world in the wizarding notes of the Velan-Forest, and although he still hasn't been able to get important meditation methods, some common sense in the wizarding world has been understood.

On this continent.

In addition to the apprentices who have lost the possibility of promotion, there are also a small number of official wizards stationed here, who are tasked with monitoring the wilderness and dealing with anomalous events, often for a term of about twenty years. There are a total of twelve official wizards stationed in the north, some dutiful, others unattended, waiting for their term to expire before returning to the mainland across the strait.

Anyway, as long as there is no big mess, no one on this continent will hold them accountable.

The wizard of the Forest of Veran has five years left in his term, and when his term expires, he can return to the Tower of the Five Rings and trade his contributions for some powerful spell knowledge.

Stephen walks through the tunnel.

As he got closer to the mushroom grove, he saw many corpses again, a seemingly fat and stout monster with a toad-like head, dark red skin, no eyes, and thick limbs, and they died a strange death, as if they had been brutally tortured.

The most common wounds are those left by two-handed greatswords.

"Could it be a strong high-ranking warrior?" said Stephen in surprise as he looked at a decapitated red toad.

Very awesome guy.

Stephen didn't dare to say that he could torture and kill a group of toad monsters so easily, the number of the other party was not large, and the wizard was only four people at most, and the traces were all the way towards the mushroom forest.

"Are you going to kill that monster?" said Stephen, holding his chin.
