Chapter 148: Money, Money...

The magic crystal dagger also seemed to be unable to withstand the baking of the magical flames, and the edges had begun to melt, as if some iron had fallen to the ground in the depths of the forest.

The dagger itself has been pitted, and the blades are both high and low, even if Bettina sees this dagger again, I believe she will not think that this is her dagger.

Xu Mu was just happy in his heart, and it didn't take long for him to be like being doused with cold water.

If the magic crystal equipment can't resist the magic flames, then even if he really figured out the magic sword technique, what is the use? Could it be that every time the magic sword skill is used, the magic crystal equipment needs to be used as a consumable?

If you use a magic sword technique once, you have to scrap the magic crystal equipment?

No matter how rich you are, it's not like that!

Xu Mupan sat on the bed, holding the magic crystal dagger in his hand and was a little stunned, his thoughts were emanating.

It's too late to say that it's scrapped, but the magic crystal dagger has become this somewhat dilapidated appearance, and it looks like this, so it's hard to get your hands on it.

But if you don't care about the appearance, you can still use today's magic fire blade a few times... But at that time, the magic crystal dagger may really be scrapped.

Just as Xu Mu pinched the magic crystal dagger and looked at it carefully, he suddenly found something strange.

The original red lines of the dagger have not been destroyed!

"Could it be that the magic flame only melts the raw material for forging the dagger itself, and the magic crystal that is tempered into it is not melted?"

The magic crystal equipment in circulation now is made of some rare materials, which are first forged and formed, and then the magic crystal stone is quenched into the equipment that has been formed.

Therefore, the place where the magic crystal equipment is called the magic crystal equipment, not because its main material is magic crystal, but because these equipment are tempered into the magic crystal.

However, Xu Mu looked at the dagger in his hand and began to be stunned again.

"What melts is the raw material of forging, and the magic crystal that is tempered does not melt..."

If the magic crystal is used as a complete main material, and the equipment thus created will be able to withstand magic?

Thinking of this, Xu Mu suddenly understood why no one was able to study the relationship between magic sword skills.

"If the innate condition of the magic sword technique is not wrong, it is that you need to pass the magic crystal equipment to use the magic sword skill. ”

"However, the magic crystal equipment is not completely made of magic crystals, so only the magic crystals that are tempered into it can withstand the power of magic flames. ”

"Most of the people who use magic crystal equipment are bounty hunters from the army and guilds. After all, the magic crystal equipment only needs a little magic power to make the magic crystal equipment volatilize a huge effect, thus narrowing the gap between the army and the magic envoy, and some magic crystal equipment can be used even by bounty hunters without magic power. ”

"It's enough for the nobles to learn magic, so how can they think about magic crystal equipment? After all, the nobles did not practice weapon skills at all, so naturally they would not be interested in magic sword skills. Magic crystal equipment is more of an ornament for nobles..."

"And what opportunity do army and guild bounty hunters who know weapon skills have to seriously specialize in magic and what magic sword skills to study?"

Xu Mu seemed to have woken up, and finally understood the real reason why the magic sword technique could not be born in this world.

It's not that some people are stupid and unwilling to try, but those who have the conditions to create are not interested in it, and those who are interested in it do not have the opportunity.

After all, it's just magic crystal equipment blessing magic, and such a simple thing can be tried by anyone.

But the nobles wouldn't try it, and the others didn't dare to use the magic crystal equipment like that...

Because it's too expensive.

For example, the magic crystal dagger in his hand is only enough for Xu Mu to use the magic fire blade three times, it is only left with stripes of lines, and there is nothing left, and the magic crystal stone that has been tempered into it cannot be reheated and supported by other materials, so it can only be scrapped.

A thumb-sized magic crystal stone has a good texture and costs 20 silver coins, and this magic crystal dagger in his hand has tempered at least 4 magic crystals the size of such a thumb.

This is still the cost of the magic crystal, plus the other materials of the equipment itself, as well as the craftsman's shooting fee, etc... The magic crystal dagger in his hand is worth more than 2 gold coins, and it is the least.

Betina's magic dagger was clearly crafted not primarily for use, but for aesthetics.

The dagger sheath alone is built with a few gems, and the price is definitely not low...

And a magic crystal dagger costs as little as 2 gold coins, so how can those military people and bounty hunters be willing to use it to experiment with magic?

"If it's a real magic crystal sword, how much does it cost...?"

Xu Mu still had an idea in his heart, since only the magic crystal could resist magic, and he was unwilling to use the magic crystal equipment as a consumable, he could only customize a magic crystal long sword with the magic crystal stone as the main material.

But the magic crystal quenching and the magic crystal forging are two different things.

Tempering is the refining of the most essential power of magic crystals into equipment.

And forging is like other equipment, it has to be tempered a lot to form, especially the magic crystal is still difficult to meet a complete large piece, can only be formed by melting many magic crystals, and then cooling can be forged.

However, the blacksmith only needs to use magic when refining the magic crystal, and then creates the full magic crystal equipment... But you have to use magic flame forging from beginning to end, and the labor price is different.

Besides, the thumb-sized magic crystal was forged, and it was estimated that it was the size of a fingernail.

A whole magic crystal sword... How many magic crystals do I need to do this?

An astronomical number popped up in Xu Mu's mind, which made him tremble with fright.

"Sure enough, I still have to make good money... The idea of the real magic crystal sword will be left for later. ”

...

The next day, Xu Mu hurriedly got up and rushed to the princess's courtyard to find Anna to practice swords, no matter how the swordsmanship training could not be put down.

Ran Anna saw that Xu Mu's eyelids were a little dark, her expression was a little tired, and she obviously didn't rest well, and she was still concerned.

Xu Mu could only hold on to his spirits, and hurriedly waved his hand and said it was okay.

After all, he had a preliminary attempt at magic sword skills last night, although he had made great progress.

However, more questions and puzzles followed, which made his mind very confused last night and it was difficult for him to sleep.

After the swordsmanship training, Xu Mu returned to the dormitory to take a bath and adjust his state before going to the dueling arena, preparing to meet Ai Lu and Luya to start today's team battle.

At the door of the dueling arena, Ai Lu and Luya came together, and as soon as they arrived at the place, they saw that Xu Mu was already waiting for them.

When they got closer, they saw Xu Mu holding a small bag and counting something.

"7...8...9..."Xu Mu sighed, "Are there only 9 magic crystals?" and they are all so small..."

Xu Mu's magic crystals were all obtained from Ai Lu, because Ai Lu had no demand for magic crystals from other systems, so the magic crystals given to Xu Mu were also fire-based.

"What are you doing?" Ai Lu leaned closer and saw Xu Muzheng muttering.

Xu Mu came back to his senses and hurriedly shook his head: "Nothing." With that, he stuffed the magic crystal back into the small leather bag and tied it back to his waist.

"Isn't this the magic crystal I gave you before?What, you can use it today?" Ai Lu was sharp-eyed, and at a glance he could see that the small leather bag was the one she used to load the magic crystal for Xu Mu before.

"Take a look, maybe you can use it..."Xu Mu rolled his eyes and looked at Ai Lu with a smile: "Speaking of Ai Lu, how many magic crystals do you have?"

Ai Lu's body shook when Xu Mu's eyes saw it, and he felt like a cute rabbit being targeted by a tiger: "There are still a few more... What's wrong?"
