Chapter 33: Magic Storage
Krissy put all the things he needed to bring into the space ring, and before going out, he asked Kacuri to come over one day a week for the month to clean up, and then went to Chasi's blacksmith shop to say goodbye, but he didn't see the dwarf, so he could only tell the guy in front of the stage, and then went directly to the carriage and horse shop, and got into the car.

The wheels were sparkling, and Chris looked out of the window.
There are still almost six days to go before we get home, and I just hope that everything goes well on the way.
The carriage in this world is not comfortable to sit in, the main reason is the wheels, there is no such thing as tires in this world, but in the magical world, this problem can only be solved by magic.
The important parts of the body are engraved with a light magic array, and the wheel axle is also attached with a stability magic array, but in fact, sitting in such a carriage, you can still clearly feel the bumps and bumps between the unstable road surface and the wheels.
The carriage is about six meters long and two and a half meters wide, and the main part is a large bed covered with ornate and soft sheets, and several shelves on the walls of the compartment to make it easy to hang clothes or stack books.
Needless to say, hiring such a carriage to go home is a luxury.
One hundred gold coins is an ordinary family's annual expense, and for the nobility of this world, it is comfortable and cost-effective to travel long distances in such a carriage.
Hire the lowest-grade carriage to walk for less than a gold coin for six days, but you have to endure the crowding of the carriage and all kinds of smells, and six days, it will kill people.
Since you have money in your hands, there is no need for yourself to suffer like this.
It's just that after sitting in the car of the previous life, and then riding in such a carriage, it feels similar to the tractor in the previous life.
Chris hired six guards, in fact, the mercenaries of this world, among these six people, there are four warriors, a thief, and an archer, they are all members of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, one of the top ten mercenary groups on the continent, Chris doesn't care too much about their level, he just cares about some small troubles that may arise on the way.
In this world, transportation is inconvenient, and the long-distance transportation of goods inevitably stimulates the birth of another profession - banditry.
Most of them are made up of scoundrels or wanted criminals who are not allowed to be found in the world, entrenched in some easily defended mountain, collecting tolls from passing travelers or merchants, and sometimes killing people and taking money.
There are even some villages along the way, that is, whole bandit villages, farming during the day, killing people and preventing fire at night, and then the next day they lay down their weapons, pick up a hoe, and become farmers again.
The empire had carried out a large-scale purge of this, but under the pressure of the exorbitant taxes of the lords everywhere, this profession was always banned, but it has improved over the years.
Chris hired these guards mainly to avoid these troubles, after all, there are only a few combat professionals among the bandits, and if they are not desperate, the bandits will not attack such a traveler with only a high-end carriage but many guards.
Several guards rode horses and guarded beside the carriage, and they only left the emperor not far away, which was considered a safe place, and their expressions were very relaxed.
Chris took out the magic notes that Professor Kerry had given him and looked at them, but due to the unsteadiness of the road surface, his eyes were very tired to see, so he could only reluctantly withdraw them and sit on the bed to meditate.
In order to avoid more trouble, Chris wore a dark magic robe, and the hood was pulled very low, so the mercenaries had never seen his face, only that the employer was a magician who might not be very old, and they were very interested in not making loud noises, and occasionally deliberately lowered their voices when they spoke.
The monotonous journey was boring, and by dinner time Chris had to get out of the carriage to move his hands and feet a little.
The mercenaries had chosen to camp on the edge of a roadside wood, leaving the rest of the group in search of prey in the woods, except for the two mercenaries and the coachman.
The remaining two mercenaries set up their tents in the clearing of the woods, and when they saw Chris getting off the carriage, they stopped what they were doing, stood up and greeted him respectfully, and Chris nodded and did not speak.
Later, several mercenaries who were looking for prey also returned, carrying a few hares and pheasants that had been washed and skinned, and lit a bonfire and roasted them.
Chriss, sitting down on a stone by the campfire, watched as everyone went about their business.
The silence made the mercenaries afraid to sit down, and only respectfully handed the roasted meat to Cris.
After eating only a few barbecued meats and refusing the mercenary's wine, Chris returned to the carriage.
It wasn't until after he was gone that the mercenaries chatted a little louder.
Listening to their indistinct voices, Chris took out the crystal necklace given by the third prince from his neck, and through the firelight that penetrated from the carriage, the crystal stone emitted a deep and mysterious blue light.
After getting it yesterday, Chris wore it around his neck.
The effect of meditation was indeed enhanced, but in fact, it was of little use to Chris. The only thing to look forward to is its magic storage feature.
So, what kind of magic is good to store?
The optional magic is the eleven magic that has been mastered, so the most worthwhile thing to store is the polysyllabic magic, which makes it instantaneous, first of all, it is the self-created double lightning ball, its spell has reached five syllables, not only that, but it also needs mental power to control it during the casting process, that is, during the period of time when it is cast on its target, Chris cannot channel the elements in the brain domain to prepare for the next magic.
Well, there it is.
Chris probed his spiritual power into Mao Jing, and a magical aura spread out in his chest, hidden and not released, and then withdrew to guide the qi elements in the magic pool in the brain domain, and when they came to the palms of his hands, he chanted a spell in a low voice, and then, the magic aura emitted by Mao Jing suddenly paused, imprisoning the magic that had been separated from the palm of his hand, Mao Jing flashed slightly, and the double thunder and lightning balls that had spread before were "pulled" into it.
Interesting!!!
There was a knock on the wall of the carriage, and Chrisse frowned, raised his head and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
Outside the window was the voice of the mercenary captain: "My lord, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that everyone's horses suddenly seemed a little restless just now, and I wanted to ask if it was you..."
It dawned on Chris that non-magicians could not perceive the aura of magic, but animals could sense the anomaly in the air, and he replied, "I'm practicing magic, you just need to watch the horses, don't care." ā
"Yes!"
After the mercenary captain walked away, he whispered a few words to the team members, and everyone pacified the horses and stood farther away.
With experience, Chris soon stored six twin lightning balls in the crystal, and the horses outside the carriage seemed to have gradually become accustomed to the restless neighing.
But the remaining capacity of the crystal was not enough to store another double lightning ball, and Chris thought for a moment, and did not continue, and hung the necklace back around his neck.
