Chapter Twenty-Five: Edgar's Bookstore

As soon as Sean entered the bookstore, he saw a gray-robed old man wearing glasses, holding a thick animal skin book, walking out of the room.

He couldn't tell how old the other man was, the old man looked very old, with gray hair and a withered face full of age spots.

The old man glanced at Sean, nodded and said, "It's the first time I've come, I don't seem to have seen you before." ”

Sean nodded, and said as low as possible in his voice: "I'm from the Kingdom of Le Pen, and I happened to pass through Cato City, so I stopped by to have a look." ”

The old man laughed, then ignored him, and sat down next to him to continue flipping through the book in his hand, and Sean walked in and rummaged through the shelves for the books he wanted.

Most of the books here are ancient books of mortals, and the books on wizards are concentrated on one of the innermost shelves, about a hundred of them.

And they are all basic books of the apprenticeship stage, fortunately, they are all manuscripts of the lingua franca, which should have been translated and transcribed by Edgar.

Sean picked up a book, and when he saw that the title of the book was "Structural Analysis of the Level Zero Spell Array Template", his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly flipped through it.

But the book can only read a few pages, and the rest of the content is bound up with silk threads, and you can't see it if you want to read it.

Originally, he wanted to rely on his ability to remember and forcibly write down the contents of a few books, but now it seems that the other party has already taken precautions.

After all, there are endless mystical methods in the wizarding world, and it is inevitable that there will be people who think the same way as him and force themselves to write down the contents of these books.

He smiled wryly, then turned around and asked, "How did this book sell?"

The old man raised his head, looked at the book in Sean's hand, and said, "Two magic crystals...... If there is no magic crystal, 200,000 gold coins ......"

Sean gasped when he heard this, he didn't expect a book here to be so expensive.

He thought for a moment, then continued to look through the other books on the shelves, and found a few more that he needed the most at the moment.

One of them is "Primary Potions", which mainly systematically introduces various primary witchcraft potions and materials, as well as the prescriptions of several more representative primary potions, as well as the methods of refining.

The content of the book is full of pictures and texts, many cherished potions that Sean has never seen before, and the content is also very detailed, which belongs to the introductory book of potions.

What excites Sean the most is that almost all low-level wizard potion recipes and refining methods can be found in the table of contents of this book.

The other is "Analysis of the Principle of Zero-level Spell Casting", which describes the principle of zero-level spells in detail, and provides an in-depth analysis of several representative types of spells, including the spell "Shadow Hand" that he has just mastered.

The remaining books, including "The Use and Storage of Energy Particles", "The Origin of Wizards", and "The Manipulation Principles of Mental Power and Mana", are also the basic knowledge of witchcraft that Sean needs to master the most.

Sean picked up a few books and handed them to Edgar.

The old man took the book and said lightly: "Twelve magic crystals ......"

Sean only has a total of fifteen magic crystals in his hands, but now is not the time to feel sorry for the magic crystals, and the basics of these witchcraft are more important to him.

He was just about to dig out the magic crystal, when he suddenly remembered the three beast skin books, since Edgar was proficient in several wizarding languages, should he help him see what books they were.

If these books are helpful to him, he can try to get a few magic crystals and ask them to help translate them.

Thinking of this, Sean handed the three books of animal hides to Edgar.

"I heard that you are proficient in wizarding languages, can you help me see the content of these books, what kind of wizarding knowledge is there......"

Listening to Sean's words, Edgar paused for a moment, but he still took the books, opened them one by one, and read them carefully.

Edgar had just looked at it for a moment, and his eyes lit up.

Sean originally wanted to spend a few magic crystals for him to help translate, but after seeing Edgar's expression, he changed his mind.

Ed put down a few books, then took off his glasses and asked, "The energy particle you are most comfortable with is negative energy, right?"

Sean was a little nervous when he heard this, after all, he was still somewhat resistant to negative energy in his heart, and he always felt that the black-robed wizard seemed to be unsightly.

Edgar seemed to see Sean's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, we are wild wizards, and there is not so much separation between the black robe and the white robe." ”

After he finished speaking, he thought for a while and said, "These books are all knowledge of the direction of negative energy spells, and I can translate them." ”

Sean smiled, took out twelve magic crystals and handed them to Edgar, and then took back the three books.

Edgar saw that Sean was about to take the books back, and said with a smile: "I can help you translate these books into a codex of the lingua franca for free......

Sean thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later......"

After he finished speaking, he put away the three books and turned to leave.

Edgar was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly said: "I can also ...... a few books you bought from me."

Sean paused, but shook his head, pushed the door and wanted to leave the bookstore.

"When you come to me in the future, all the books can be ...... for free"

Hearing Edgar say this, Sean stopped and turned to walk back.

"Can it all be free?"

Edgar nodded with a wry smile, then returned the twelve magic crystals to Sean.

Sean put away the magic crystals, and then handed the three books to Edgar's hands.

"How many days can you translate?"

"If you're in a hurry, I'll give it to you tomorrow night. But there is one condition, the manuscripts of these books will have the right to sell them in bookstores in the future. ”

Listening to Edgar's words, Sean looked down and thought about it for a moment, then nodded.

Edgar let out a long breath, and then said with a smile: "Most of my books about wizards here are the basics of wizard apprentices, and joining the wizarding organization in the gathering place is all knowledge that can be learned for free. Your books are different, even if you join a formal wizard organization, it will cost a lot of magic crystals to learn, although they are all black-robed wizards, but they are also very rare. ”

Sean immediately understood after listening to it, it seems that these books should be after Alva joined the organization, and he should have gotten them from his teacher.

He couldn't figure it out, Alva's qualifications were so low, and he was close to forty years old, but there were still wizarding organizations willing to take him in, and he could also become a student of an official wizard.

Thinking of this, Sean laughed self-deprecatingly, what do you care about all that.

Since Edgar said that it was free, of course he would not be polite, walked to the bookshelf inside, and chose a dozen more books one after another.

He put away the books he had chosen, and then said to Edgar, "I'll go first, and I'll come back tomorrow night." ”
