Chapter 213: Technical Exchange
The elf who was drinking tea noticed the white wolf's gaze and raised his head suspiciously. ()
"What are you looking at, is my face dirty?" the elf touched his face in confusion.
"No, I'm just in a daze. The white wolf also felt that it was inappropriate to stare at others like this, so he withdrew his gaze.
"So, let me introduce myself, my name is Yaga, I am the attendant wizard of His Highness Farr, we just met this morning, and now I have come to you, mainly to communicate with you about rune spells. The male elf put down the teacup and said.
"Squire wizard, is that the one who said he doesn't know water elemental magic?" The white wolf felt that this guy was a little familiar just now, and only then did he recall his identity after being reminded by Aga.
"I'll make you laugh, Mr. White Fox, I'm the unsuccessful squire wizard, and when my master is in danger, I can't even fire a water bomb. Aga's head bowed, as if a little ashamed.
"That's not your problem, everyone and the element have different phases, if you can't sense the water element, it's normal to not be able to send a water bomb. The white wolf admonished, knowing the concept of elemental sensing.
"You can say that, I feel so much better. Aga smiled and looked up, her eyes shining again.
"Haha, let's hurry up and get to the point. The white wolf found out that they had started an awkward conversation, and quickly stopped this trend and pulled the topic back.
"That's right, the one you used this morning is a fourth-order spell of the fire element, I want to learn that spell, and in return, I can exchange it for an elf's exclusive spell, or alchemy materials. In order to show his sincerity, the male elf took out a small pocket directly from his clothes, and when he opened it, he saw that it was all filled with brown shardwood-like things, emitting a faint fragrance.
"Maybe you haven't seen it before, in fact, this is the core of the Yuelin tree, it is a very precious rune material, it is highly matched with the earth element, it can be used to depict the rune array, it can also be used as a sensing device for the puppet, even if it is taken directly, it also has the effect of improving the physique, I still have a few bags of cores like this, and it should be more than enough to exchange them for a fourth-order spell."
"Tree core, what is that?" the white wolf asked curiously, in fact, he was very interested in two places just now, one is this tree core, and the other is the so-called fourth-order spell, which seems to be an evaluation system used to divide the strength of spells, and the white wolf is eager to find out what level he is currently in.
However, the meal should be eaten one bite at a time, and the questions should be asked one by one, and the white wolf chose to ask about the core first.
"The core is the very central part of the trunk, where the essence of a tree's life is condensed. Some have magical utility, others are more ordinary. Aga explained.
"I see, then, what is the fourth-order spell you are talking about?" asked the white wolf.
"Eh, don't you even know about the hierarchy of spells?" Aga looked a little surprised, "yes, I heard that you're from the fox clan, so there shouldn't be a level evaluation of spells there, right?"
"I haven't heard of anything like that. The white wolf replied.
"The so-called fourth-order spells refer to spells that can be used in battle, allowing wizards to fight against a hundred, and according to the latest standards determined by the Society of Truth, all rune spells are divided into nine orders. ”
"The first to third orders belong to low-level spells, which basically have no attack power, and some auxiliary spells, as well as construction spells, are all classified in this grade. ”
"Fourth- to sixth-order spells are mid-level spells with slightly stronger attack power, and wizards who have mastered these spells can make or break a local war. ”
"The seventh-ninth order spell is called a high-level spell, and launching a high-level spell generally requires a lot of elemental power, and it takes multiple high-level wizards to work together to launch it successfully, such a spell is extremely powerful and can affect the outcome of the entire war. ”
"There is also the legendary tenth-order spell, this spell only exists in theory, it can destroy a medium-sized country on the continent in an instant, because it is too powerful, the Truth Society has banned the list of books with relevant spell records. ”
After saying this, the male elf felt that his mouth was a little dry, and he couldn't help but pick up the tea on the table and take a small sip.
"In other words, whether the spell is powerful or not, it is divided according to their lethality?" asked the white wolf suspiciously.
"It is in this way that the ability to contribute to the war is the highest and only criterion for dividing spells. Aga finished his tea and replied.
"That doesn't feel right. Hearing this, the white wolf couldn't help but complain, using the contribution to the war to judge the strength and weakness, which is too unfair to those construction spells, such as the lighting rune array currently used in the emirate, and the rune array that automatically generates water resources, these spells are extremely important to the people's lives, and the complexity of these runes is only slightly lower than that of automatic mining machines.
However, according to the judgment criteria of the Society of Truth, these important and complex spells should be classified as low-level spells, and the rune array on the automatic mining machine can be classified as medium-level spells, which is obviously a bit unreasonable.
"What's wrong? We wizards are supposed to pursue stronger power, aren't we? It's really appropriate to use combat power as a criterion. Listening to the white wolf's questioning, the male elf was obviously a little surprised.
"No, nothing. The white wolf shook his head, this way of grading highlighted the idea of the supremacy of combat power, he thought that this way of judging was neither comprehensive nor scientific, as a wizard who had formed his own rune system, he could not accept such a division method.
But it's good to think about this kind of thing, and it's useless for him to oppose it here, because the right to set standards is in the hands of the Society of Truth, and in this huge multi-racial world, his personal voice is very small, and even if he desperately publicizes, the impact is still limited, and he simply doesn't have the energy to do these things now.
"So, what about your decision?" asked the elf.
"What level of spell are you going to exchange for?" asked the White Wolf.
"Of course it's a fourth-order spell, so it's an equivalent exchange. When the male elf said this, his eyes glanced at him from time to time, which made the white wolf a little suspicious.
"Really? You might as well describe your spells first. The white wolf looked at the male elf with suspicion, and this guy's performance showed that he had a ghost in his heart.
"Well, that's right, this rune circle of mine uses elven technology first, so it's easy to construct. In addition, it can be used to summon earth elemental puppets and fight enemies" The more the male elf said, the less confident he became.
"So, how does this earth elemental puppet fight the enemy? If I summon it and it's different from what you say, I'll have to settle accounts with you. The white wolf smiled like a wolf.
"Uh, the Earth Elemental Golem Bar can crush enemies, or you can make your own body into a wall to block enemies. ”
"Suppress the enemy with your own body? I want to ask how fast this puppet is? What if the enemy runs away before it is pressed? As for hindering the enemy's function, it can't cause damage to the enemy, so it can't be considered a fourth-order spell. The white wolf changed his position and lay comfortably on the blanket, he now fully understood how to bargain with these wizards, since they regarded lethality as the only criterion, then just saying that their spells were not lethal could effectively devalue the value of these spells.
"Yaga was dumbfounded by the white wolf, his spell was only a third-order spell, and he originally planned to act as a fourth-order spell to deceive the white wolf, but he didn't think that the white wolf would ask a few words, and he would leak the bottom.
Realizing that he could no longer pretend to be, the male elf could only choose and confess, and he was afraid that if he didn't, he would completely lose the trust of the white wolf in him.
"Actually," the elf began to explain to himself.
After a period of negotiation, the white wolf finally understood the specific situation of the spell that Aga intended to exchange, this is a spell that can summon an earth elemental puppet, a puppet can last for about half an hour, and its movement speed is quite slow, but whether it is for physical attacks or elemental attacks, it has a certain resistance, which can be used to absorb a lot of damage, and its characteristic is protection, which is not suitable for attacking enemies.
"Third-order spells can't be exchanged for fourth-order spells, and I can't tell you my skills unless you can come up with more. The white wolf said in a regretful tone, shaking his head at the same time.
"That's it, I'll add another Yuelin tree core, no more!" the male elf gritted his teeth, with an expression of reluctance to cut love.
"In addition to this third-order spell, do you have any other spells?"
"I also have two first-order spells and one second-order spell, why do you ask these?"
"Teach me all the spells you know, plus a copy of the core of the Moon Tree tree, and I can teach you my fourth-order spells. The white wolf offered his own price.
"No, no, if you want those spells, the core can't be given to you, you have to exchange them for an equal price!" the male elf hurriedly waved his hand, indicating that he could not accept the conditions proposed by the white wolf.
After some bargaining, the two finally determined the final conditions, and the white wolf used a fourth-order spell in exchange for all the spells of the male elf society, as well as a piece of information about the elven world.
Aga hurriedly took the core of the Yuelin tree back into his arms, and then exhaled a long breath, it seems that he is really precious this thing.
However, the white wolf felt that it didn't matter, anyway, he had too many mud stones to use up, enough to depict the rune array, and there was no shortage of such a little Yuelin tree core.
