  Chapter 54: Mastering Magic, the First Pot of Gold [Seeking to read]

  Magic crystals are different from spell books and are one-time consumables.

  When learning, the caster only needs to use mental power to penetrate it to master the spell model engraved inside.

  The magic crystal will break directly after use.

  Of course, the specific casting effect depends on the comprehension ability and elemental perception talent.

  The so-called construction of a spell model is to use mental power to depict specific spell symbols and frameworks.

  First-level magic is relatively simple as a whole, just a three-dimensional pattern composed of a few unfamiliar runes.

  It is said that the model required for those natural disaster-level magics is comparable to a giant 3D scroll. Even a slight error will cause the spell to fail, or even be counterattacked by the magic.

  When your understanding of magic reaches a certain level, you can also try to create your own spells.

  Chen Xuan only used less than two water clocks before he initially mastered the bursting fireball and water healing magic.

  To this end, he personally tested it in the corner of Stinky Rat Alley.

  The former is a hot fireball the size of a washbasin, with a maximum range of about 120 meters.

  After hitting the target, it will detonate flames, causing splash and burning damage effects.

  The latter is a healing magic under the water element category. It can quickly recover less serious wounds, but deeper wounds will leave scars.

  Judging from the consumption of mental power, he can use each magic as many as thirty or forty times in a row.

  Affected by his proficiency, even if his elemental sensing talent is maxed out, he still cannot do it instantly.

  The bursting fireball takes about 2 to 4 seconds to build, and the water healing takes 5 to 7 seconds.

  This proves that in the world of magic, hard work and talent are indispensable, and only the combination of the two is the pinnacle.

  The most terrifying opponent is the kind of guy who is not only extremely talented, but also hard-working.

  The rest of the time he spent on understanding that defensive magic skill.

  Speaking of which, activating magic skills is somewhat similar to casting spells.

  It's just that magic skills stimulate magic elements through specific construction methods to form different effects.

  This defensive magic skill is called "Guardian Shield". It can use magic elements to condense an invisible defense zone on any part of the body. The range is about a circle with a diameter of 30 centimeters.

  The Guard's Shield can easily withstand damage of the same level and most impact forces, but a certain amount of magic energy will be consumed after maintaining stimulation and resisting attacks.

  An attack that is too powerful may even directly clear the body of magic, leading to a weakened state.

  Because the principles are similar, Chen Xuan quickly memorized it and mastered it.

  After practicing many times, he shortened the activation time of the magic skill to less than 2 seconds.

  Calculated according to Blue Star time, he has not rested for almost a hundred hours.

  Even hard work and meditation can't completely offset the feeling of fatigue.

  It's bright outside.

  The sun moved little by little towards the position above the head.

  Even the dim sun revealed half of its body in the very far horizon.

  "It's time to go Rebecca."

  He jumped on the spot and moved his limbs.

  He greeted the kitty girl who was already fully dressed.

  Chen Xuan personally rode a 28-bar bicycle and drove the petite cat girl to the agreed place.

  ...

  a secluded secret warehouse.

  Ophelia has been waiting for a long time.

  She had a linen bag slung across her body, her expression complex and nervous.

  Chen Xuan, who was riding a bicycle, arrived late.

  On the road, many melon-eaters cast curious glances at him. But that's all.

  Because compared to those fancy creations from the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, bicycles seem much more normal.

  Brake firmly to a stop and kick out the kickstand with the heel of your shoe.

  Chen Xuan pulled Kitten Girl to the front of the half-elf eldest lady.

  This warehouse was a place carefully chosen by Ophelia. The neighborhood was empty and quiet.

  Seeing Chen Xuan arriving, she immediately bowed and saluted.

  "Master!"

  Chen Xuan just waved his hand and concentrated on rubbing the soles of his boots stained with cow dung on the gravel.

  "How's the sales situation?"

  He was more concerned about the sales results of these two Naro days.

  Ophelia was well prepared for this. She took off her bulging satchel and handed it to Chen Xuan respectfully.

  "Master, there are 34,272 crowns and 2 cents in total here..." "

  We have exchanged them for you into various amounts of dark gold, mithril and black iron coins." "

  In addition to the 15 points for every 100 agreed upon by the business group, there are also Trade tax is three out of every hundred."

  These were all agreed upon in advance, so Chen Xuan had no objections.

  He took the linen bag and discovered that there was something else inside.

  All the coins were packed in a small wooden box, and the broken bag was just a cover-up.

  He opened the wooden box and took a cursory look.

  More than 30,000 crowns were exchanged for more than 20 dark gold coins, sixty or seventy mithril coins, and the rest were black iron coins.

  These are the first pot of gold Chen Xuan earned in Naroya Continent!
  The texture of dark gold is somewhat similar to gold, but the color is darker.

  And holding it in the palm of your hand, you can vaguely feel its weak reaction with the free magic power.

  It is indeed a magic metal, and it does have some tricks up its sleeve.

  He put all the coins into the storage compartment with his backhand.

  Ophelia began to report on the sales.

  "The magic tears you gave me were packed into thirty-seven alchemy test tubes. According to the latest price of 623 crowns/tube, it was easily digested using only the downstream distribution channels of the West District Caravan." "Aluminum casting materials are according to the noble rules

  . For a banquet of 12 people, 13 sets of tableware were created, each priced at 1,250 kronor. This price is actually lower than the market price, and is mainly distributed to cross-city travel companies." "A total of 387 cups of Coke were sold, and the sales volume

  was It is continuing to improve with the spread of word of mouth, but the unit price is low and the total sales are not many." "

  Finally, there are bicycles. Only four were sold during this period..." "

  One of them was bought by the West District Blacksmiths Association. , and one was bought by me...my father, and the remaining two were actually sold to adventurers."

  This result was expected by Chen Xuan. In fact, in most cases, he and Ophelia discussed it.

  Although a novelty like a bicycle has its convenience, initial promotion is a problem.

  No matter how good something is, it needs to gradually accumulate reputation.

  Needless to say, there is a need for magic tears. As long as the monster still exists, it will not worry about sales.

  As a luxury product, aluminum tableware also has limitations or sales thresholds.

  However, the method of distributing it to various parts of Naroa through cross-city traveling merchants should be enough to digest the remaining casting materials.

  He never had much expectations for Coke, and mainly regarded it as a universal light product.

  Chen Xuan thought for a while, then took out two cans of mercury weighing 350 grams and four aluminum castings and handed them to Ophelia.

  Coke and bicycles don’t need to be repaired for the time being, at least they can still be sold for a while.

  Ophelia then handed over the disguise powder to him.

  All expenses are deducted from profits.

  Chen Xuan did not misjudge the person.

  She really has a talent for business.

  Whether it is accounts or details, everything is handled clearly!
   Reference frame: A 223×132×66 (mm) thickened aluminum lunch box weighs about two hundred grams.
