Chapter 9, this is how the gold coins came to be
It is truly unbelievable that the single-target Lightning Strike is merely a first-level spell of lightning mages, yet inscribing it onto a scroll can yield such formidable power
The first method is generally used for casting spells beyond one's level; when a novice mage wishes to cast a fifth or sixth level spell, this method can be employed. The second method, on the other hand, is designed for those who lack magical power, such as warriors and nobles without combat abilities
How much for both items together
"Here, take it, you silly!" Thunder stuffed the gold coins into Tifa's pocket
There happens to be a jewelry store nearby, and with a mighty wave of his hand, he said: "Follow me"
This is what I am selling. Thunder took out more than ten talismans from his embrace and said, "Boss, name your price."
George has already torn the talisman with a swift motion.
Haha, then let's say it will be two gold coins and thirty silver coins for you, esteemed guest
"Wait." Just as George was about to tear the talisman, Thunder let out a loud shout in an attempt to stop the boss's action
I can't calculate?" Thunder shot a glare at the boss
Two and a half gold coins! The boss replied sincerely
After walking out of the small shop, Uncle Oak carried a large bag on his back. Watching the thunderous tossing of gold coins, he couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, how did you manage to acquire so many gold coins in the blink of an eye?"
"One gold coin!" the boss said cheerfully from the side, "It truly matches the young lady's flower-like beauty perfectly."
However, the words were still called out too late
"I agree, but I have one request. If you, as the boss, agree to it, there will be many more opportunities for collaboration like this in the future"
I found a tailor shop and spent several gold coins to have three people completely rewrapped from head to toe, and bought a large pile of clothes to be packed. Uncle Oak was beside himself with concern over the expenses, while Tifa was particularly fidgety, feeling unnatural in her new clothes.
Gently pinching the calluses on Tifa's palm, Lightning felt a pang of heartache, and the little girl quickly withdrew her hand, her face flushed red
It is nothing
With a crisp sound of "ka-cha," a bolt of lightning struck precisely into the large pit that had appeared.
The Five-Light Thunder Talisman is fundamentally a basic talisman of the Talisman School, which differs slightly from the magical scrolls of this world. It is uncertain whether the thunder will still have an effect after being torn.
"That boss and the book are my nephew, didn't you know?" Thunder handed two gold coins to Tifa, "Take this, and if you see anything good, buy it for yourself."
Seeing such an unfathomable event with his own eyes, Thunder was at a loss for words. Could it be that this world is vastly different from the Earth of the past
Deal! George is also a straightforward boss. After negotiating with the Thunder, he quickly paid the full amount in gold coins and packed up a set of magic scrolls to send to him. As for revealing the identity of the producer, how could George, as a businessman, possibly commit the taboo of leaking trade secrets?
Tifa looked eagerly at Uncle Oak, who shook his head, and Tifa did not dare to respond
George examined the talisman in his hand for a long while before finally preparing to tear it apart
The young master would not have spoken to Tifa like this before, and the little girl felt a sweetness in her heart, deeply moved.
So much... George was on the verge of breaking down. It is important to understand that the time and effort required for a wizard to inscribe a scroll is considerable, and there is also a significant risk of failure. Generally, no ordinary wizard is willing to undertake such a thankless task.
What happened? George and Tu looked at Thunder with delight.
Powerful enough, even if torn apart, it possesses the strength of a level 2 magic! If combined with incantations and magical assistance, this is undoubtedly a lightning spell that can rival a level 3 spell
This time, fifteen talismans were sold, yielding a total of three hundred gold coins. With the current magical power within Thunder, if he were to inscribe scroll talismans, he could produce seven to eight in a day. This money comes a bit too easily.
"How much is this hairpin?" Lightning casually picked up a jade hairpin, inserted it into Tifa's hair, and turned to take a look. It matched very well. Tifa's hair was a bit dark red, and the jade hairpin was like a touch of green among a myriad of flowers, further accentuating Tifa's beauty
This one is a bit more expensive, one and a half gold coins
You said
Thunder picked up a dark red bracelet again, gently placing it on Tifa's small hand. Instantly, a dark red hue flowed over her fair skin, making it quite eye-catching
"Your Excellency Colin, are you looking to sell these items?" the shopkeeper asked with some excitement. The highest level of magic scrolls available in the store was only level 2, while level 3 and above magic scrolls were scarce in the market. With George's abilities and connections, he was still unable to procure them.
Please give me one of each of the magical scrolls and books from your store, and when these items are sold, you must not tell anyone that I made them
Tifa's little face was as red as a monkey's bottom, as she lowered her head onto her chest
"How beautiful she looks." Thunder gazed at Tifa, who was dressed in new clothes, her features delicate and refined, exuding an air of shyness, truly a beauty in the making, though her figure was a bit slender.
The difference is merely a moment. George came to his senses and carefully assessed the value of these scrolls: "On the market, a level 2 magic scroll can sell for ten gold coins, while a level 3 one is worth fifty gold coins. However, Your Excellency Colin, these scrolls of yours... well, they are level 1 Lightning spells, yet they can exert the power of a level 3 magic. Nevertheless, the Lightning spell remains a level 1 spell, and this novel magic scroll still requires time and financial resources to establish a sales channel. Therefore, I offer twenty gold coins per scroll; what do you think?"
Thunder feels extremely cool
Guest, how may I address you
Just call me Colin. Thunder is now somewhat confused as well; it seems necessary to take some time to slowly study the issue of magical power in this world. There is absolutely no problem with the method of inscribing the talismans; the only possible reason for such a transformation is the influence of magical elements.
Tifa shot a sideways glance at her companion, while Lightning chuckled beside her. It was truly unexpected that the usually gentle Tifa could display such a strong demeanor now
A very fair price, and George does not appear to be a unscrupulous merchant. In addition to being skilled at drawing talismans, Thunder is also well-versed in physiognomy
Uncle Oak pressed his lips together, saying nothing, but a look of concern still appeared on his face
How much is this again
"A gold coin is too expensive," Uncle Oak muttered beside.
The young man in front of me took out a dozen at once, and they were not inscribed using blank magic scrolls.
People are judged by their attire. Three individuals dressed in new clothes entered the jewelry store, immediately attracting the flattery of the staff, especially Tifa's petite figure, which captivated the attention of the men.
There are two methods for releasing a magic scroll. One is for the magician to use spells and magical power to assist in the release, which can fully showcase the power of the magic inscribed within the scroll. The other method, which George is currently using, is a more barbaric approach: tearing open the magic scroll. When the magical elements stored within the scroll collide and combine, a spell is produced, but its power is significantly diminished.
