Chapter 159: Treasure (Continue to the fifth watch, the first watch asks for subscription)

As a prime red dragon that occupies an important trade route to the bustling metropolis of Zazespo.

The treasures of Bertogas are undoubtedly much richer than those of Vermes.

What's more, he also has an unclear connection with the members of the Dragon Worship Sect.

So the quantity and quality of magic items are also quite amazing.

There are a staggering dozen +1 and +2 magic weapons alone.

There's even a +3 Frost Mithril Two-Handed Battle Axe, which appears to be crafted by the Northland Dwarves, which not only requires half the strength of an iron weapon of the same size to wield, but also deals additional cold damage on hit.

Similarly, there are quite a few types of magic armor.

One of them was obviously chain mail made by an elven blacksmith, and even Zuo Si, who came from the modern society of the earth, felt a shock from the bottom of his heart.

Because this armor barely weighs on the body, it looks like wearing a light shirt, and it doesn't even interfere with the mage's complex spell casting movements.

But its incredible defense is enough to withstand the piercing of any non-magical weapon.

Even if the chain mail structure is damaged by a strong external force, it will automatically return to its original state in a very short time.

On top of that, the elven artisans who made it were so mad that they carved magical symbols into each lock, and then pieced them together to create an effect that blended in with the environment.

When illuminated by the light, these images are constantly changing like chameleons with the surrounding scenery.

If the wearer wishes, it can also be transformed into various styles of exquisite dresses and skirts.

It was a piece of armor coveted by thieves, assassins, and bards.

"What an unbelievable piece! I'm willing to bet it would take at least four months to a year for a master craftsman and an arcane spellcaster to make this chain mail. ”

Zuo Si gave the evaluation as a maker of magical items.

As a typical pragmatist, he couldn't understand why the other party would spend so much time and energy just to make the chain mail look more beautiful and exquisite.

If it's just to provide a better disguise, then you can add a change magic, or directly enchant a [Stealth Technique].

There is no need for a lock, a lock to be refined.

Perhaps in the eyes of elves who have lived hundreds of years, time is really a very cheap and indifferent thing.

Because they have enough time to splurge, enjoy, and pursue the good things that interest and love them.

"This elf chain mail can be sold for at least tens of thousands of gold coins in the human world. Especially those aristocrats and wealthy businessmen who like to pretend will break their heads for it. ”

Vermes' eyes flashed with naked and undisguised greed.

Zuo Si nodded thoughtfully: "Of course!"

The artwork made by the elven masters can be sold for thousands of gold coins in the human world.

Not to mention this kind of treasure with considerable utility.

But what it means to me is probably just to be able to sell for a high price.

After all, I can probably make similar armor in batches at a cost of less than fifteen hundred gold coins. …

As for the so-called art......

I'm sorry, but I don't have the cells to appreciate it.

It's better to leave it to those rich nobles to buy it back and enjoy the collection slowly. ”

When Vermes heard this, he immediately couldn't help laughing: "Hahahaha! I knew you were a sinister and cunning bastard. What does not appreciate the cells of art? You're just trying to extract more wealth from those stupid human aristocrats. In your eyes, they are probably no different from fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered in a pigsty. ”

"Don't say it so ugly. I didn't use violence to coerce anyone. It's they themselves who are willing to pay a high price. Isn't the value of art, fine art, and handicrafts determined by the recognition and pursuit of those who have it? By hyping up and collecting these high value-added things, the aristocracy can establish class barriers and chasms that ordinary people cannot overcome in their lifetimes. And I can get more money. It's called taking what you need, and it can also be called a win-win. ”

With that, Zuo Si casually stuffed this chain mail into the satchel he carried with him.

He was ready to find time to write a poignant love story for him.

Then the story is used as a marketing ploy to get a lot of money from the wealthy people in Am's upper ruling class.

After all, it is also a work of art, and the gap between those with stories and those without stories is not ordinarily large.

After counting the weapons and armor, Zuo Si began to identify small items such as rings, necklaces, and bracelets one by one.

It didn't take long for him to find three magic rings, an amulet and a bracelet.

The rings are:

The [Ring of Regeneration] allows the wearer to quickly recover from injuries, and the ring can even allow broken limbs to grow back;

The [Ring of Free Movement], which can ignore all immobilization and restrict movement, has it and no longer has to worry about being trapped by [Entanglement], [Greasy], and [Cobwebs];

The [Ring of Fire Resistance], which grants the wearer resistance to fire, is not 100% immune to fire damage, but at least it can guarantee that one fireball spell will not die.

The amulet is the Eye of the Archer.

The wearer gains two additional agility stats and increases the chance of a ranged weapon hitting a critical point (increased critical strike chance).

As for the bracelet, it is the [Energy Strike Ring], which can cause magic damage to designated enemies around it by releasing the stored energy.

The bracelet can recover one to three points of energy per day, with a maximum storage limit of ten points.

When used, the wearer can choose how many points of energy to put in at a time.

The higher the amount of energy points invested, the more powerful the magic damage will be.

Although it may sound similar to the Ring of the Ram, the difference is that one is a force field impact damage and the other is pure energy damage.

Zuo Si unceremoniously put the [Energy Strike Ring] on his hand.

The other three rings will be put away for the time being, and then we will consider which of the men to equip them with when we get back.

As for the mountains of coins and trade bars on the ground, he just put the more valuable gold and silver into dimensional bags. …

Then he packed up the precious metals and magic metal ingots refined by the kobolds and took them away.

The rest of the copper, crude iron, lead, tin and other ordinary metals, Zuo Si didn't even look at them.

On the one hand, the dimensional bag that I brought was about to run out.

On the other hand, these things are really not worth a lot of money, so there is no need to bother with them.

Just because he doesn't care, doesn't mean Vermes doesn't care.

After realizing that Zuo Si didn't look down on those copper coins, copper bars, and copper ingots, the greedy red dragon immediately tentatively asked, "You don't want any of these things? ”

"No, it's not that I don't, but I'll leave it here for now. I'm going to make this a secret base for some of the more dynamic experiments. Zuo Si explained meaningfully.

The more he looked into the vast dragon's lair, which stretched from the middle of the mountain to the ground, and the intricate tunnels that the kobolds had dug out for kilometers below, the more he felt that there was a lot to be done in this place.

What's more, the Faren Continent is not only the above-ground part, but also the equally large and complex underground part - the Dark Realm.

If the kobolds can dig a passage to the dark realm, then Zuo Si can use this passage to get in touch with the underworld.

"Cut! Cheapskate! ”

Realizing that he couldn't pick up anything, Vermes immediately pretended to be disdainful and pouted.

However, as the time came to two o'clock in the second half of the night, Zuo Si was also in the mood to continue to quarrel with the red dragon, and after arranging their respective responsibilities for the summoned creatures a little, he immediately embarked on the return journey.

Because he had to return to Myratma before dawn.

Otherwise, when the sun comes out, everyone can look up and see a red dragon flying through the sky.

When the time comes, let alone landing, even getting close will trigger a series of chain reactions.

Zuo Si didn't want to try his best to clean up the mess, and in the end he fell short because he didn't calculate the time correctly.
