However, Xia Duo's sudden appearance made the two people in the small workshop suddenly quiet, and before Xia Duo could speak, the old man pulled the middle-aged man to his knees and begged for mercy:

"My lord spares his life, this kid was dizzy for a while and deceived my lord, I am willing to sacrifice all my property, and I only ask my lord to spare his life!"

As he spoke, he even ripped off the necklace from his neck, held it with both hands and handed it to Xia Duo, "My lord, this is a treasure I obtained in the ruins when I was young, please let us go!" ”

“……”

Xia Duo was a little confused, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, he was offering family property and treasures, did he look so unapproachable?

In the end, the buyer and the seller are willing to buy it even though he knows that the thing is fake, and he still buys it, and he has some thoughts about fishing law enforcement, but he can be regarded as clearing mines for this family, if he changes to other mages, he may really want money and life.

Of course, other mages may not be able to find each other as easily as Xia Duo, [Discovery] is a 4-ring spell, just for the sake of a fake that only costs 10 gold coins, it is impossible to waste a 4-ring spell.

But since Xia Duo is here, he will definitely not go in vain.

He first picked up the necklace and took a closer look at the bead-shaped pendant on it, and found that it was indeed a magical object that could detect and detect spells, just as he had guessed before.

Although Xia Duo did not perform the [Identification Technique], the magic on this pendant was not encrypted at all, and it was added through the [Magic Constantism].

This discovery greatly reduced the value of the pendant here in Xia Duo, although the [Magic Constancy Technique] seems to be much more flexible in making magic items, and can even add spell effects to the human body, but its stability is much worse than that of using Mithril components to make it.

And the casting threshold is very high, basically no matter how many rings of magic effects need to be attached, at least one ring of casting difficulty is required, which involves the element cycle, just because this [magic constancy] is not a specific spell, but a technology.

This is not in line with the research direction chosen by Xia Duo, who needs a manufacturing method with a lower threshold so that he can expand the range of casters who can participate in the creation, and also promote the iterative update of various spells.

After a careful examination, Xia Duo threw the necklace back into the palm of the old man's hand, and said in a calm tone: "Get up first!" ”

When throwing this necklace, Xia Duo was indeed a little reluctant in his heart, and he could get this magic item worth more than 10,000 yuan without paying any price, and it was completely in line with the standards of a color-resistant mage, and no one would accuse him of it.

But—

Almost no need, not equal to no need at all, what he needs to pay is actually a little belief and a little principle in his heart, and he doesn't fully agree with the current environment of Nessreel.

The three views of him and the mage are still different, although they have been here for so long and have been more or less affected, there are some principles that cannot be changed.

Fishing for law enforcement, and then coming over to kill people and take money, ask yourself, Xia Duo can't do it, even if he doesn't kill people, only take money, Xia Duo also feels a little dishonorable.

If it's an enemy, it doesn't matter, just like that Hawk Lord's arcanist Aguilain, Xador's sneak attack is a matter of course, and even if there is a more "strange" method, he doesn't mind trying one or two.

But the two sides are not enemies, so there is no need for such trickery.

Although the Resistant Mage does not advocate justice, he also rejects evil, and even the evil does not necessarily like to be in the company of the evil.

If it was the protagonist of a book written by Xia Duo before he crossed over, perhaps the first sentence he would say would be - "Just vulgar things, dare to mess with my mind!" Then kill or chop, and finally touch the corpse.

This looks more pretending to be a middle two, but on Xia Duo himself, whether from the perspective of reality or his own mind, he is still unwilling to accept this magic item.

However, not wanting magic items does not mean not wanting people.

Of course, there are some questions that need to be asked before that.

Seeing that the two were still trembling and kneeling on the ground, Xia Duo said again, "Stand up!" I don't want to say it a third time! ”

In fact, Xia Duo is very disgusted with this form of kneeling at every turn, although it looks a little cool, high, but from another angle, will he also meet an existence that needs him to bow to the ground one day?

Of course, it doesn't matter if others kneel to themselves, but it will be uncomfortable when it is their turn to kneel to others.

This kind of bad habit must be resolutely banned, you and I are both great arcanists, and even the seeds of the gods of Gao Miao, why should I kneel to you, if everyone has such a belief, maybe this is the world suitable for the development of civilization.

Xia Duo had not been asked to kneel yet, but he knew that if a Grand Arcanist asked him to kneel and salute, he would have no room to refuse.

Although the caster can be regarded as a great power, and there is no need to highlight his authority through various complicated forms of rituals like ordinary people in power, there is no guarantee that someone will be good at it.

Every time he thought of this possibility, Xia Duo was irritable.

The strength is not as good as others, and it is useless.

……

The old man and the middle-aged adventurer in the small workshop finally stood up under Xia Duo's two orders, but they were still trembling and cautious, for fear that the mage in front of them would come with a spell.

"Tell me, how many people have you deceived like this?" During the inquiry, Xia Duo unobtrusively cast the Judgment Spell Inquiry he had learned from the [Projection Plane: Arcane Empire].

In fact, it is a mind spell.

[Inquiry] is similar to the [Honest Domain] that Layton once cast, it can determine whether the target in the spell field is lying, but without the participation of holy power, it is pure arcane magic, which is quite useful.

"My lord, we only came to Severton yesterday from the Herben Leader, and we only shipped one item, and it was bought by the lord." The middle-aged man seemed to have some grievances in his tone.

It's true, but not lying doesn't mean you haven't hidden, and Xia Duo continued to ask, "Then did you lie to anyone else before you came to Severten?" ”

"......" The middle-aged man's face began to struggle, and finally his face collapsed, and he was about to speak, when the old man took the first step and said: "My lord, we only sold a few before, and we made it clear in advance that it was just ordinary silver jewelry, and they themselves thought it was Mithril." ”

"Oh? Why did you get to Severton and become bolder? ”

When Xia Duo bought it, the middle-aged man said that it was a Mithril jewelry, and he didn't dare to say that in the field, but when he arrived in Severington, he said so, did he think that the mage in Severington was more stupid than in other places? Or are you planning to stop coming to Severton with just one vote?

He glanced at the silver-white wire that had fallen to the ground, the appearance of silver and mythril was still obvious, and the metal wire looked like the mythril thread from the outside.

If it weren't for the fact that Xia Duo often came into contact with Mithril, he would really be deceived by them, and the craftsmanship of these two people is really not bad.

"Where did you know about the style of this ornament?" After two common questions, Xia Duo finally got to the point.

The middle-aged man looked dazed, just looked at the old man, and the old man didn't hide it, "My lord, when I was young, I found a broken ancient magic weapon in the ruins, there were many complicated Mithril structures, I dismantled it and sold it, and later, later-"

"Later, I felt that it was not enough to sell only one piece, so I started counterfeiting?" Shado helped him to say the rest of the words.

"Yes."
