Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 109 Two Spell Scrolls

“… six crystals, a kilo of starlite, a box of white root powder, a bottle of red blood dew, six magic tablets, a magic crossbow with six magic iron crossbows. You've got everything you need. Check it out. ”

Julian, the fat old man, had been waiting for Claude in the store for a long time, and he led Claude into the secret room again, put a bead of light in it, and then took out a sheepskin bag from under the counter, and took what Claude wanted out of the bag, and placed it on the counter.

Claude nodded after a careful examination, pulling out that very ordinary linen purse from his arms and dropping it on the counter: “Look, it's all in there. ”

Twenty-one Sullivan gold coins plus two gold crowns. Julian was also tired of checking them out. Finally, he was satisfied to put all the money back in the linen purse: “You should get a better purse, or at least a deer leather purse to deserve the price of these Sullivan gold coins...”

Claude complained about Julian. Claude just laughed and said nothing. When he was stupid, it was easy to see what stores were made for sale with a deerskin purse. If you ask carefully, you might find out where these deerskin purses were. Knowing that each deerskin purse has a slightly different style and pattern, the bright eye can find out who the owner is...

On the other hand, the linen purse you use is disposable, mostly used for trading, cheap and affordable, so it doesn't hurt. If you want to find clues to its previous owner from this linen purse, it can only be futile. Because each time those stores sell linen purses, there are almost a hundred of them, and they can't tell the difference between the front and back, they're the same style, the same size, the same crude construction.

Julian cracked his mouth: “Do you want me to pack these things up for you? I can give you this sheepskin bag, so you can have some. ”

“No, thanks.” Claude shook his head and took off his backpack from under the robe: “I brought my own bag and didn't need your sheepskin bag. ”

As a precaution, who knows if this fat old man Julian is playing any tricks on his sheepskin bag, the best precaution is not to use his stuff, not to give it away for nothing.

“Uh, no offense.” Julian laughed awkwardly a few times, watching Claude put a piece of what was on the counter in his backpack. This backpack is also a street item sold in the open market. It looks like it has been around for some years. I don't think I can find anything useful to check in the store where the backpack is sold...

“Well, by the way, I almost forgot something.” Julian picked up the linen purse and pulled two Sullivan coins out of it and placed them on the counter, indicating that Claude had put them away.

“What do you mean?” Claude Fox looks at Julian suspiciously, what the hell is going on with this fat old man, and he actually comes out and pays himself. Did the sun rise from the west? No, it's dark outside now...

“Well, there's an unwritten rule in our underground magic market that more than ten Sullivan gold coins can be traded with a 10% rebate. You can consider it a 10% discount. So 21 Sullivan gold coins, I'll give you two.” Julian smiled sincerely, and those who did not know his details would surely see him as a model of good faith.

“Nothing else?” Claude looked at this fat old man playfully, picked up two Sullivan gold coins and threw them up and down.

“Huh…” Julian's eyes spinning with the gold coins up and down: “I'd like to ask you a few questions…”

“Oh, ask if I can answer that. I have to think about it.” Claude picked up the dropped coin and grabbed it in his hand.

“Uh, did you do the Black Snake thing last night? ”

“Yeah, who told them to get in my way.” That's a good answer, Claude said.

“Aren't you worried that you used magic to hurt people last night to go to Wang Du's special department? ”

“Oh, nothing, my teacher can handle it.” Claude looked fearless and talked straight to death.

Conflicts with black snakes in the alley cannot be concealed from the groundhog, Julian, as evidenced by the interviews now. Had it not been for the conflict last night, Julian might not have offered two Sullivan gold coins as a rebate. Obviously, the deal with Claude, he offered a high price, which would also scare Claude into remembering his hatred, and he had to think of a trick to throw up a little profit.

Ask Claude if the clash last night was just a test to see if Claude didn't fear the tiger or if he didn't even know that special department existed, perhaps with a different background. But Claude pushed on his much-needed teacher, and this answer would most likely let Julian hang his head to wonder whether it was the magician who had the ability to teach such a vicious disciple to act with such recklessness...

“By the way, since your teacher has this alchemy charm array, there must be no shortage of magic materials required for future alchemy trials. Whether we can work together for a long time if possible, I will provide all the magic materials your teacher needs, and of course I will give you a corresponding discount...” Julian finally said his true purpose.

Claude shook his head: “It's hard to do. Honestly, your magic materials here are too expensive, almost half of the underground magic market on Wangdu's side. Why don't you buy my teacher from you and send a letter straight from there. If I hadn't made a mistake this time, I wouldn't have let my brothers collect money from you..."

“Oh, hey, are we ever familiar again, the first time we make a deal we have to be a little cautious. If you come to buy next time, I promise to give you the market price of Wangdu, and if it is large, there is a discounted price.” Julian laughed.

“Next time, you won't need to buy magic materials until my teacher gets back. The most important thing now is to replace that broken alchemy charm array with this new one before the teacher comes back to teach me a lesson. But if you guarantee an affordable price, I might recommend it to the teacher to see how he decides.” Claude said it as if he really had a teacher.

But Julian seemed convinced: “Oh, of course, it's up to your teacher to decide whether to buy or not, but it's always right for the little brother to say a few more beautiful words for me. I won't forget the little brother's help if the deal is done in the future...”

Claude photographed two Sullivan coins on the counter: "Do you have a spell reel for sale here? If there is, let me see, there is a suitable place to buy it right here, save yourself from running to Wang Du again. ”

“There are spell scrolls, but what kind of spells do little brothers need? ”

“I want that fighting spell, do you have it here?” Claude asked.

Julian's face is difficult: “To be honest, combat magic hurts a lot. I don't have it here, but Wang Du rarely shows up. You should know that it takes luck, that there is a sale and you are present, and the price is just what you can afford so you can get a combat spell. But I have two ancillary combat spells here. Would you like to see them? ”

As Claude nodded, Julian pulled out two long boxes from the counter and opened the lid to remove two spell scrolls. This is not a magic scroll, the magic scroll is a spell that can seal the magic on the scroll and release the spell drawn on the scroll by tearing open the seal. This spell scroll is used to learn spells and has detailed instructions and drawing steps for the structure of the spell spell array.

A spell scroll paints a feather technique, simply falling from a height like a feather, rather than “pounding” into a meatloaf of flesh. However, this feather technique is also limited and can only last a minute or two. The annotation next to it says it is best not to exceed 10 meters in height, otherwise it is too high, for example to jump off a cliff, the first 10 meters float like feathers, two minutes later like stone, can fall into a meatloaf.

Of course, if you can keep your head clear during a rapid fall, you can do the plume surgery, which is different. Perhaps 300 meters high, you fall 290 meters, and the last 10 meters of successful feathering will still land safely, and that's what you can do. But this is only a theoretical basis, and so far no magician has learned how to do it.

There is also a spell scroll painted with remote arrow protection, which can be described as a true combat aid spell. Claude just thought about it for half a day, and couldn't think of any connection between plume technique and battle. Perhaps he could still use it on the run...

But this remote arrow protection spell, in Claude's view, is also a chicken rib. What age is it? Anybody else got bows and arrows? They're all playing with guns. If there is a remote firearm protection spell, it is believed that this spell will surely thrive.

Seeing Claude shake his head and look at the scrolls of these two spells with disgusting eyes, Julian hastily explained in detail: “Little brother, there are only useless magicians in the world, there are no useless spells, and any one spell can have unexpected effects under certain circumstances. This feather technique, for example, helped one of my magician friends escape several chases from that special department. It also made it very convenient for him to hide traces and collect medicines. ”

Oh, it does have something to do with escape, and think clearly, three or four stories of building, the hunter blocked the stairs, thought the hunted would have a wingspan. I didn't expect to rush upstairs and kick open the door, but I saw the hunted man wave goodbye and jump out of the window, floating like a feather, stretching out. Why not call the hunter exasperating blood...

Well, this is a more practical spell, so be prepared, maybe when you can use it. Claude nodded indicating that the spell scroll of this feather technique he wanted.

Julian goes on and on: “This long-range arrow protection used to be the standard assistant spell of every battle magician. Take a long-range arrow to protect yourself before battle, without having to worry about getting hurt by dark arrows and runaway arrows.

Of course, nowadays, unlike in the past, no one will fight with bows and stone crossbows. It seems that this spell is useless, but otherwise, this long-range arrow protection is an important spell for magicians in the field to protect themselves.

It's like the clash you had last night with the Black Snake Club in the alley, and although you won it all, you have to be glad the Black Snake Club people didn't carry these medium-range weapons with them, crossbows and sleeves, or you wouldn't be able to pull back.

Now the Black Snake Club people already know that what's at stake with them is a magician in the field, who's got a lot of crossbows in place right now in case you come home and ask questions. Crossbows do lose their role on the battlefield, but in these small-scale conflicts, they are an instrument of reckoning... ”

Claude was creepy and shocked that he did take advantage of remote spells last night. If the members of the Black Snake Club really carried hand crossbows and sleeve arrows with them, as Julian said, they were afraid that they wouldn't like it. After all, they could only hide from each other by hiding. But the alley was so wide, sometimes they couldn't hide...

“Well, I'll take both spell scrolls. How much do you want?” Claude crashed.

“Just two Sullivan gold coins, you should know that in Wangdu, one of those so-called harmless spells needs ten gold crowns. My two spells are much more useful than those, and I only sell you one Sullivan gold coin, which is only twice the price of those harmless spells, which is a great deal for little brothers! ”

“All right, Julian, I'll take care of you this time. Deal.” Claude said.
