Chapter 147: Alex's Troubles
The emerald inner city, where the four seasons are like spring and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, is the core area of the Medici family's business empire.
In the middle of the inner city, on a gentle slope, next to the forest stream, there is an ordinary wooden house.
The wooden house seems to be unsightly, but it blends in with the tranquil scenery next to the house.
Alex has been waiting at the door for a long time, and in the entire Middle-earth world, there are not many people who are qualified to make him wait, and the two people who are talking in the room happen to be among them.
The wooden door slowly opened with a "creak", and an extremely handsome young man walked out of the door.
The man's expression was unusually calm and peaceful, and his body seemed to be emitting a soft holy light at all times.
"Miko-sama. Alex bowed, sideways to make way for the visitor, his eyes looking respectfully at the ground.
"Alex, you're troubled......"
The voice of the Son of God is gentle and ethereal, he is a messenger who patrols the world in place of the God of Light, and his word is the will of God.
Alex buried his head lower, humbly awaiting revelation from God.
"The Light will guide the lost Lamb, and in the face of devout faith, any troubles will eventually dissipate......
When Alex looked up, Miko was gone, and he silently repeated the other man's words in his mind before entering the cabin.
Inside, an old man with white hair was painting under the window, and it was the wooden house he was in that he was painting in.
"Father. Alex called softly.
"Waited?"
"It didn't take long. ”
The old man put down the pen in his hand and wiped his hands with a clean cloth. Seeing the paint on his father's hands, Alex couldn't help but think. Could it be that when Miko-sama was here just now, my father was also painting?
"You're going to Nice?"
"Yes. ”
"I've heard that, too. That pharmacist's thing. ”
"An interesting person. ”
The old man wiped his hands and sat down in a rocking chair. Motioned for Alex to sit down as well.
"I heard that he is going to donate to the orphanage, what do you think about this matter?"
"Father, I think it's a good thing. ”
The old man shook his head slightly, the expression on his face a little disappointed.
"A set of potions can make a nobleman live for nearly a hundred more years, do you know how many nurseries such a nobleman can afford to consume every year?"
Alex was silent, his brow furrowed slightly.
The old man softened. He asked, "Do you remember when you were a child, when I told you the story of the wolf on the steppe?"
"Yes Father. The wolf, the hare, and the steppe are a balance, and so are many things in this world. ”
"You know," said the old man slowly, "you see, sometimes, there are more hares in this steppe, and there are more wolves in that steppe, so we will transport some of the hares away, and then some of the wolves will be brought over." In this way, the grasslands can be preserved. This is the duty of our businessmen. You can't protect the rabbit just because it's pitiful, it will only destroy the entire grassland. You know that?"
Alex nodded.
"Goodness without principles causes more damage than it does. The impact is also worse. ”
"Well, those potions ......"
"Of course business has to be done, you don't do it. Others will do the same. It's just that the quantity needs to be controlled, and it can't be more than it is now. The old man replied, "That's what the man came for." ”
"You mean. Miko-sama knows about this, too?" Alex was a little surprised.
"What can I hide from them?"
"What about the orphanage? I haven't agreed yet. ”
"It's just a small thing, you decide. Speaking of this, the old man suddenly raised his head and looked at Alex with a solemn expression: "One day, all the responsibilities of the family will fall on you, no matter what you can't figure out, think about what I just told you." ”
Alex walked out of the hut, still wondering what his father meant. Since this is just a trivial matter, why do you want to take it out of your mind? My father said that no matter what I couldn't figure out, listening to his tone, it seemed to mean something. So what kind of things would it be that he needed to emphasize?
Suddenly, he remembered the words of Miko-sama: In the face of pious faith, any troubles will eventually dissipate......
After Donner got the list of magic circles and scrolls, he sketched out the parts he needed the next day, and also noted the number on the side.
Irina was frightened by his purchase list, and in her opinion, even if the Principality of Ukulele went to war with its neighbors, it probably wouldn't be able to purchase so many high-end goods.
"I see that the highest level of the detection circle is level five, is there anything higher?" Donner seemed unsatisfied with the list.
"Master, all the fifth-level magic arrays and scrolls on the list have been passed down from the Magic Continent, only the Medici family has channels, and the higher the level, I'm afraid the entire Middle-earth world will not be there. Irina replied that the former head of the Chamber of Commerce had told her the statement. In any Medici family chamber of commerce, such an explanation will be heard.
"According to you, there are no magic arrays and scrolls above level 5 in the entire world of Middle-earth?" Donner wondered. He had gotten a batch of ninth-level magic crossbows from Cynthia, and since there were them in the north, why didn't Middle-earth have them.
"Master, actually...... I don't know, it's just a family statement. ”
"Okay, you can send me the ones I selected first, I have seen the price, a total of about three million magic crystals, I have prepared it for you, this is three hundred orange crystals, if it is not enough, it will be deducted from the next batch of potions." ”
Donner handed the bag containing the magic crystal to Irina, who didn't reach for it.
"No, no, you don't have to give it to me. Master Puyok has already instructed that whatever you want, the cost will be deducted from the next batch of potions. ”
Donner smiled and withdrew the crystal.
......
As Donner expected, after expanding the Divine Sea, the two small tails that grew from the elemental magic god element were extremely helpful in building magic.
It only took a month for Ruiko to basically master the first-level basic magic.
"As long as the direction of the Shenyuan is well controlled, they will automatically line up in the right place. "That's what Reicco learned.
Without the help of a master like Gernada, it would be impossible for Ruiko to learn the Azure Fighting Qi, not to use Donner's original magic method to instantly perform basic magic, and it is impossible for him to be like him, not limited by a single tenth of the divine element.
Therefore, he is also a second-level magician, Donner has the peak strength of a sixth-level magician, while Ruiko is just an ordinary second-level magician.
Since it is impossible to close the gap in strength in the short term, Donna simply asked her not to rush for quick success, and to cultivate all levels of magic to proficiency first.
Other than that, the rest of Rickle's time was spent building illusions, a psychic magic that Downer considered much more useful than elemental magic. (To be continued.) )
