Chapter 21: The Shackles of the Wind
The owner of the magic shop finally understood, still in disbelief, and said, "Ah, the ice crystal bow it...... Did it fit in with you?"
Linya smiled and said, "Well, it should be! I'll see if I can summon it again." As he spoke, the cold current in his body flowed up his left arm, and finally kept oozing out of his fingertips.
When the cold current left the body, it condensed in the air, and soon formed a crystal transparent ice crystal bow, the whole body shone with a little star cold light, and between the wings of the bow body, a white cold light silk string was condensed, which was really beautiful!
Beauty like jade, ice bow like the moon, what a perfect match in the world! The owner of the magic shop was almost dumbfounded. If Linya grows wings back now, this guy will probably faint immediately.
"Oh my God, this is so beautiful!" the boss couldn't help but admire.
"Hehe, boss, thank you so much, you say, how much does it cost?" said Linya, happily playing with the ice crystal bow.
"This ...... This one...... Ah, beautiful princess, I'll be honest with you, this ice crystal bow was bought with almost all the possessions...... It cost 500 gold coins, and I spent all my working capital, and I mortgaged this shop. Ah, how can I say it, this ice crystal bow is an artifact, it should be priceless...... But the power of artifacts is often sealed, and ordinary people can't exert their power at all. I also knew that the Ice Crystal Bow was alive, but no matter how much I summoned it, it wouldn't pay attention to me!
"Well, since it refuses to recognize me as its owner, it is a waste that I keep it...... I'm already the fourth person to get it, and the three magicians in front of me are the same as me, they can't break the seal and become its owner, so they have to sell it at a low price, make a little money, and forget it, what doesn't belong to you, it's useless to keep it, it's better to let it change hands like this, maybe it's easier for it to find its own owner, and it can be regarded as a good thing......
"I think this Haitian Magic Academy is the highest level magic academy on the mainland, and there are many highly qualified magicians, maybe I can find its owner here? I got it the day before yesterday, and it's the first time I've been selling this ice crystal bow to a customer, but I didn't expect it to be so coincidental that it found its owner for the first time......! This ice crystal bow is the weapon of the Xilan Water God, how can it recognize you as its master......? Are you the messenger of the water god?" asked the owner cautiously.
"Hehe, the identity of our princess, boss, you don't have to guess anything. In short, with her noble status, she will never insult this ice crystal bow. Alas, you've said so much, but you haven't said how much you're going to sell it?" said Namia in the First Emperor.
"Uh...... This is an artifact!it should be a priceless treasure!" The owner of the magic shop reaffirmed the value of the Ice Crystal Bow again, especially emphasizing the word priceless, "Hehe...... As for me, I'm actually a very contented person, and I'm glad that the Ice Crystal Bow has found its owner...... Didn't this princess say that she had a thousand gold coins, well, then use this thousand gold coins, I just made a pair of money, not too much, right? Besides, this princess is so rich, she won't care about this money, right?"
Linya smiled and said, "Boss, you are really a person who can do business." You're very honest and I like your character! Well, I accept your price. Sister Suzanne, go back to the castle and help me get the money, thank you. By the way, boss, I only have a thousand gold coins now, this light diamond ring ......"
The owner of the magic shop was already happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say! This light diamond ring should be regarded as a bonus for the ice crystal bow!"
Suzanne went back to the castle to move the money, and Linya continued to play with her Ice Crystal Bow, and to test its power, she summoned an ice arrow condensed from the Ice Crystal Bow and attached it to the bowstring. The owner of the magic shop was frightened and said, "Don't! Don't shoot!"
Linya asked, "What's wrong?" The boss smiled bitterly, "I don't want to use my small shop to test the power of this artifact!
When Suzanne and two knights carried a heavy box of gold coins in front of the magic shop owner, the magic shop owner was stunned again, picked up one and looked at it, "These thousand gold coins are all red leaf gold coins?" Ah, are you the little princess Linya of the Red Leaf Empire?"
"Hehe, yes. Boss, can you click on it and see if there are any more questions?" asked Linya.
"There's a little bit of a problem...... "The owner of the magic shop said as he stroked the gold coin.
"What's wrong?" asked Linya quickly.
"When I say 1,000 gold coins, I mean the standard Domle gold coins that circulate in various countries on the mainland, and your gold coins are all gold coins with red leaves......"
"No, right? Gold Momiji Coins should be in better condition, right?" asked Namia.
"yes...... The gold red leaf coin is the best in color and texture, and it is the hardest currency on the mainland, and a gold red leaf coin can be exchanged for at least one hundred and twenty standard dalal silver coins, that is, 1.2 gold domle coins. So I can only charge you 833 gold coins at most, and you should take the rest back!" said the owner of the magic shop very seriously.
Oh, I can't see that there are still such businessmen in this world? In Linya's impression, businessmen should be all businessmen, and now they still push the money they get out. Linya couldn't help laughing and said, "Boss, why does this money have a grudge against you?"
The owner of the magic shop said: "Who doesn't love money, but you have to take it in a proper way!" The price I offered is 1,000 domle gold coins, which is enough money, then I can only collect so much money, this is the most basic principle of integrity that I believe in as a businessman!"
Linya listened in awe, and said, "Boss, thank you for that!Ah, by the way, we don't know your name yet! Looking at your appearance, you should be a very powerful magician, right?" The owner of the magic shop smiled and said, "You can just call me Gambo." As for the past...... Alas, then don't talk about it. This is one hundred and sixty-seven gold coins, you can take them back! And these three cold crystal arrows, but you have to keep them, their power is extremely terrifying, but the number is limited, don't shoot them indiscriminately! Well, if you think my props are still satisfied, welcome to come back next time!"
Linya smiled and said, "Thank you, Boss Gambo." You're such a nice person, of course we'll take care of your business next time!"
Linya triumphantly returned to Momiji Castle with the ice crystal bow, and Orlando was already surprised to see it, and burrowed his head into the pile of magic instruments to concentrate on his research.
Linya went back upstairs, today's Violet Daily had arrived, Linya flipped through it, and there was new news about Sachnea, and the armies of the other two countries in the Triple Alliance of Nakans, the Ronnie Kingdom and the Kamis Kingdom, also crossed the border into Sachchenia's territory to support the Demos Kingdom's territorial claim to Tandon County, and put forward their respective war reparation claims.
After analyzing the current shape of the Northern Continent, a commentator in the Violet Daily pointed out that the Red Leaf Empire must have concentrated its forces in the southeast and was ready for war against Cessnia. And Sachonia provoked a dispute over the sovereignty of Tandon County at a very inopportune time, which disrupted the battle plan of the Momiji Empire. The Red Leaf Empire has rarely and openly rejected the request of the Kingdom of Sachnia, obviously very angry, and wants to give a little punishment to the disobedient Sachnia. And the three kingdoms of Nakonas took the opportunity to ask for territory and reparations to Sachnea, because they now don't have to worry about the Red Leaf Empire punishing them, the Red Leaf Empire covets grain, it is the rich Cessnia, and Nakancy happens to not produce food.
The emperor's father didn't know what he was thinking, right? Linya dropped the newspaper a little depressed, and Pope had already come in, and saluted, "Your Royal Highness, what do you have to tell your subordinates?" Linya asked, "Archmage Pope, do you know what magic can trap a person's body and not move?"
Pop said: "Of course, there are two kinds of magic in the wood system, the winding technique of the natural system and the wind shackles of the wind system. ”
"Oh...... Archmage, do you know both?"
"Of course! These two types of magic are very practical magics, and magicians will try to learn them as much as they can after they have reached a certain level. ”
"That's good!" Linya said happily, "Archmage, I need you to do me a favor......"
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, please speak. ”
"Tomorrow night that smelly boy from Rofitte will invite me to the ball, and I'll ask him out for a walk, and then you'll help me tie it up with magic, and I'm going to beat him up!
"Your Royal Highness, this is not very good...... After all, the prince of Rofet is the future emperor of the Bright Moon Empire, and if he does this, I'm afraid it will be ......," Pop said with some embarrassment.
"That little white face hates it when you look at it...... Ah, well, forget it!" Linya thought that it would not be convenient to borrow the hands of others for this kind of event after all, and these two kinds of magic should not be too difficult, and she should be able to learn it herself. Thinking of this, Linya told Pop to step back, and then turned around and told Namia to go to the library to find some books on winding and the shackles of the wind.
Winding and Wind Shackles are both wood magic, but are listed in nature and wind magic. Nature's Entanglement uses the life trait of the wood element, which induces the growth of a magical medium such as the life of a twig and grows countless vines to trap enemies, which is very slow to cast and requires supports, which is very troublesome. But its effect is very good, the elemental vines grow extremely fast, and they are extremely tough, and once the spell is successfully cast, it is difficult for the caster to remove it in a short period of time, regardless of whether it is slashed or burned.
The Shackles of the Wind are much simpler, condensing focused wood elements into magical ropes to bind the caster. The Shackles of the Wind are much faster and simpler to cast than the Winding Technique, but the stability is a little worse than the Winding Technique, and it is easier to break.
Linya thought about it for a while, and finally decided to use the shackles of the learning style to deal with the little white face. After all, no one would stupidly stand there and let you use the winding technique to tie up, besides, that guy is only in his twenties, so he shouldn't have too much magic, this wind shackle is enough for him.
