Without waiting for Lukan to answer, his sister Kemira had already come over enthusiastically.

"I know, I know, it's a soul stone."

"Soul Stone?"

Li Chuan showed a trace of doubt on his face.

Kemira immediately explained:

"The Soul Stone is a very precious crystal, and it is also one of the indispensable materials for enchanters to make magical items, and it can also be used to replenish the power of magical weapons.

This piece of yours is a small soul stone full of souls, which is usually worth 80 gold coins.

If you can find an extra-large soul stone, you can sell for 1,200 gold coins with just one piece. ”

"Then do you sell soul stones?"

As soon as Li Chuan heard that it was a necessary material for making magic items, he immediately became interested.

Boss Lukan shrugged:

"This kind of thing is a rare item, and ordinary people don't need it at all, so I don't usually buy it here, if you want to buy it, you have to go to a store in a big city like Snow City.

Or go straight to the Wintercastle Mage Academy, where the magicians have a lot of them. ”

Not to mention that ordinary people can't use it, even those adventurers with lower levels can't use it either.

Because magic weapons that can be enchanted are not something that those low-level adventurers can buy and use, and in his town, even low-level adventurers are very rare.

So naturally, I won't spend a lot of money to buy some soul stones and eat ashes on the counter.

But soon he seemed to think of something again, pulled a few times in the cabinet under his feet, and took out a soul stone that was about the same size as the soul stone in Li Chuan's hand, but the color was completely transparent.

"By the way, I almost forgot, this is the blank soul stone I received from an adventurer a few months ago, and I can sell it to you for 25 gold coins if you need it."

"Blank Soul Stone?"

Li Chuan picked up the soul stone and compared it with the one in his book, and the blank soul stone obviously didn't have any soul energy.

Although Lu Kan was puzzled that such a powerful adventurer as Li Chuan was unclear about these common senses, he still patiently explained:

"When the soul stone is mined and manufactured, it is an ordinary crystal, and only a mage can use a magic called a soul trap to extract souls from animals and put them into soul stones.

Alternatively, if you have a weapon that has been enchanted with the magic of a soul trap, you can extract its soul and put it in a soul stone after killing the animal.

So the price of a blank soul stone is much cheaper. ”

"Yes, then I'll buy it."

Without hesitation, Li Chuan took out 25 gold coins and put them on the table.

Kemira, who was next to her, quickly picked up five gold coins and stuffed them into Li Chuan's hand, and turned her head to stare at Lu Kan and said:

"Brother, you said you wanted to give him a 20% discount!"

"Okay, then 80 off."

Seeing this, Lukan twitched and put the 20 gold coins into the cabinet.

This sister really doesn't want it!

"Thank you."

Li Chuan smiled at Camilla, then picked up the blank soul stone and left the trading house, entering the Sleeping Giant's Hotel again.

Before, he booked a room in the hotel, just so that he could rest while taking a good look at the books in his hand.

"The God of Creation and the Alien Gods"

Half leaning on a wooden bed made of soft animal fur, Li Chuan picked up the first book and quickly skimmed it.

This is a book that tells the difference between the Protoss and the Demons.

The general meaning is that ordinary people are easily confused with gods, but in fact, there are two kinds of gods.

One is the creator god, that is, the gods who created the world and participated in the creation of this world.

For example, Rock Khan, who is considered to be the main creator god, most of the gods among the nine holy spirits, some of which are mortals who ascend to the light realm to become holy gods, do not belong to the creation gods.

The other is the alien gods, the demon gods, who were not involved in the creation of the world, such as Azura, Boyesia, Karavicus Ver, and Merunez Dagon, among others.

Of course, demon gods do not mean evil gods, they are very evil, some are good, and some are in between.

In the book, it is believed that the Protoss means static, and the Demon represents change, so the Protoss can be killed, like Rock Khan's body turned into two moons after his death, and the Demon can only be exorcized, not killed.

However, what is recorded in the book is not necessarily true, and Li Chuan feels that it can only be used as a reference.

After all, there are too many races in this world, and many things in history and mythology are very controversial.

It's a pity that this book only introduces the difference between the Protoss and the Demon Race, and does not record some related deeds and abilities of the two, so that he can't judge what level of their strength is.

If you do, you can't do it yourself.

After closing "Creation God and Alien Gods", he opened "War of the Dragons".

This book is very interesting, and it also gives him a clearer understanding of the dragons of this world.

To sum up, it was a man named Isgram who fled with his people from a place called the continent of Atmora to the continent of Tamriel.

He also brought the faith of that continent with him.

It is a worship of animal gods who worship eagles, wolves, snakes, moths, owls, whales, bears, foxes, and dragons as gods.

Historians have examined that those animals are in fact a kind of incarnation of the Holy Spirit today.

This reminded Li Chuan of the patterns on the stone walls he saw when he went to explore the barren waterfall and ancient tombs during the day, and they were indeed pictures of human beings worshipping animals.

And the carvings on those mechanisms are also some of these animals.

The book says that the most powerful of these gods are dragons, and these dragons actually appeared on the continent of Tamriel.

In order to worship the dragons, humans built temples and prepared tributes for them, and the dragons also divided a part of their power to some of the humans, and these humans are dragon sacrifices.

Originally, everything was harmonious, but then a certain dragon sacrifice was ambitious and wanted to rule and enslave the entire human race by iron-blooded means, and was resisted.

In the end, it involved the dragon, and it became a war between the dragon and the human.

At first, humans were unable to compete with the mighty dragons, and suffered heavy casualties, but for some reason, some of the dragons fell to the side of humans and taught them how to use magic.

So the scales of victory tipped in favor of humans, dragon sacrifices and a large number of dragons were killed, and a small number of dragons were driven away from humans.

The faithful followers of the surviving dragons built dragon tombs for the dead dragons, believing that the dragons would eventually return.

As for why a small number of dragons would betray their own race and help humanity.

According to the sacrifice of the nine gods at that time, it was the great time dragon god Akatosh who personally intervened in this matter.

And the time dragon god Akatosh, which is not detailed in the book, but Li Chuan also knows something from Locker's memory, he is the main god of the Nine Holy Spirits, the first god, the father of all the dragons in the legend, and holds the most powerful law of time.
