my age of magic

Chapter 1408 212. Holy Silver Crossbow
What the old Kuru had been worrying about had actually happened now.

The liches in the forest behind the death swamp built a bone gate leading to the underworld. A large number of undead creatures entered the Pai Plateau of the Roland Continent through the bone gate. The orc tribe summoned all tribe warriors to fight with all their might. Whatever needs the tribe has, naturally they must be met first.

The magic metal market on the side of the Grimm Empire is fairly stable. Previously, the five largest mithril mines in the Ahn'Qiradian plane were occupied by the Nacoma, which caused the price of mithril metals in the Grimm Empire to soar again and again. The price of mithril It once went straight to thorium and fine gold, and now, with His Royal Highness Prince Charles leading the Construct Knights of the Royal Construct Knights to recover the five large open-air mithril mines on Anqiladuo, the acquisition has restored magic The operating order of the metals market.

Mithril is widely used in various elementary magic rune plates and magic items in the Grimm Empire, mainly because Mithril has good magic conductivity. In addition, the current metallurgical technology of the Grimm Empire can be silver-plated on some metal plates , this hot-plating process can make the mithril layer on the metal plate as thin as a hair, thus greatly reducing the production cost of the primary blank magic rune plate.

The Babington family has been monopolizing the market for blank Mithril Magic Rune Tablets of the Grimm Empire in San Carlos City. A large number of Mithril Rune Tablets are produced from the workshop in San Carlos City and are continuously shipped to the Grimm Empire. Afterwards, inscribers from all over the country endowed these blank rune tablets with new magical properties. Many old-fashioned magic workshops have close ties with the local inscriber unions, and they purchase some finished magic runes from the inscribers. Tablets, crafted into some magic items.

I still remember that the first time I saw this kind of rune plate magic item was on Qige’s magic caravan. At that time, Qige’s magic caravan had a bathroom built with 'water gathering' rune plates. Miss Singer I took me to take a bath in that bathroom. At that time, I saw countless water droplets converging from the water collecting funnel, and felt that the magic was so amazing.

Looking back now, that bathroom is just one of the necessary facilities on a large magic caravan, and now a simple kitchen is added to the large travel magic caravan, and some large caravans even have exhaust fans installed in the vents on the roof. To keep the air in the car unobstructed.

In the Grimm Empire, Mithril rune boards are low-end magic rune boards. Most of the primary magic rune boards are drawn with Mithril blank rune boards. Therefore, the magic metal market of the Grimm Empire has the largest trading volume. The magic metals used are not magic red copper and magic black iron, but mithril.

Mithril has some sacred magic attributes, so Mithril has the effect of restraining undead creatures. This does not mean that undead creatures will die directly when they come into contact with Mithril, but that the trace of holy light contained in Mithril is very important for undead creatures. Possesses some corrosive effects.For undead creatures, mithril is like a slow poison. For undead creatures exposed to mithril for a long time, the soul fire on their bodies will slowly extinguish under the evolution of the holy light.

The orc tribe's first choice to fight against the undead army is of course magic weapons mixed with some mithril, so the orc tribe's demand for mithril suddenly increased. Silver is also understandable.

"Did those orcs propose to buy some magic weapons or metal armor mixed with mithril? The magic weapons made in the magic workshop on the empire side are still very sophisticated." I asked Marvin.

Marvin shook his head and only said one word 'expensive'.

For the tribal orcs, the prices of items in the Grimm Empire are still somewhat expensive, and the weapons used by humans are basically very light in weight, such as some blunt weapons such as hammers and sticks. The orcs prefer dwarves.

However, in terms of the price of mithril in the magic metal market, the price of mithril in the Grimm Empire is relatively low, so the orcs want to purchase some mithril from the empire.

I raised my head, glanced at Betty standing behind me, raised my head and said to her: "Add a few more orders to North Duisburg, and ask them to produce three more batches of giant crossbow arrows."

Regarding the orders from the North Duisburg blacksmith workshop, the contract has always been signed on Alia's side.

The substrate of the giant crossbow arrow and the rune plate was transported to Xinliu Valley through Alia’s warehouse, and printed in the magic seal workshop in Xinliu Valley to make the red copper magic pattern rune plate and the magic giant crossbow arrow. The discarded runes The board substrate will be re-melted in the blacksmith workshop in Duisburg North.The successfully printed magic rune boards will be sent to Murray's workshop in charge of assembling the rune boards. The ordinary giant crossbow arrows and single-attribute giant crossbow arrows will be kept in Aliya's warehouse, and then the ordinary giant crossbow arrows The head will be sold by Alia to the arms dealers of Marquis Haslab.The single-attribute giant crossbow arrows will be given priority to the South Wind Legion, but recently these batches of single-attribute giant crossbow arrows have been sold to another star in the imperial capital—the Marquis of Moxiang to repay the krypton gold belt coming debt.

Betty came down the stairs when Marvin and I started talking about the orc tribe.

Alia is still upstairs checking the accounts of the business for this quarter. Betty usually comes to check the accounts in the business. Only at the end of each quarter, Alia will check it herself.

"Master, do you want anything else?" Alia's personal maid asked me.

Senior Vernon, who was sitting next to me, glanced at me, his Adam's apple twitched, but he refrained from speaking.

I coughed lightly, and then continued to say to Betty: "There are still a large number of moonblade axes confiscated from the Nebulu spiders in the warehouse, let Murray's Rune Workshop find a way to replace the axe It is hung with a layer of mithril, and strives to make a batch before this magic airship returns. It is necessary to ensure that this batch of weapons is sent to Gludin as soon as possible. Also, this batch of canned luncheon meat and meat floss bricks will be shipped as soon as possible. In the warehouse over there, all these materials don’t need to be sold, they are all hoarded.”

Originally, I wanted to tell Betty to purchase a batch of wheat flour, but seeing Senior Vernon's expression on the verge of bursting, I still thought I'd hand over the purchase list to Alia later.

The next plan is to wait for me to return to the plane of Hierro, and then I will bring the Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion to approach the marsh sea at the southern edge of the Black Forest. There, we will unite with the plane of Hierro The Ancient War Tree fought a large-scale battle with the Nibru Spiderman.

I patted my forehead and told Betty: "Also help me prepare a magic caravan. I'm going to the Imperial Academy of Magic later."

"Okay, master." Betty lifted the corner of her skirt with one hand and curtseyed to me.

It made Senior Vernon look at me deeply again.

I said to Marvin: "See if you can contact the airport. We are renting two magic airships. Our current transportation capacity is still a bit weak. This will ensure that these materials will be sent up as soon as possible, and then bring more from the orc tribe." Bring back some magic herbs."

Marvin took a sip of the black tea, drinking it as if he were drinking golden cider.His expression was a bit strange, he squinted his eyes and looked at me and said: "Hey, Jijia, why do I feel like the Grimm Empire has suffered from the undead disaster, oh, no! I understand your character, even if you are somewhere on the border of the Grimm Empire If there is an army of undead in the region, you probably won't be so active, maybe only when there are undead in the north, you will act like this!"

In my heart, I didn't feel the difference between the northern border and the Pai plateau, so I said to Marvin: "The plateau is also considered the northern border. If you think about it carefully, once the army of undead occupies Gludin Town, along the After walking down the road of death, it will take less than a month to reach El City, do you think the method we used to deal with barbarians in El City will be useful to deal with the undead army?"

Marvin smiled and said to me: "You are thinking a little too far ahead! But it's okay to think about it carefully. I can understand your mood. Most of your followers and followers are from the Pai Plateau. "

I didn't wait for Alia to finish checking the accounts of the firm, so I took Alia's magic caravan and left the firm with Senior Vernon and went directly to the Imperial Academy of Magic. Senior Vernon was sitting in the magic caravan. Digesting some of the information he just learned, he sat on the soft leather sofa opposite me, looked at the gorgeous decoration inside the magic caravan, and some exquisite food and drinks on the table in the car, took a few deep breaths to calm down slightly After a moment of mood.

Senior Vernon had a complicated expression on his face, and he said to me, "That firm belongs to Mr. Qige, right?"

It is well known that Qige has almost monopolized the business with the orc tribe in the imperial capital.

"Well, before Qige returns to Etia, let me take care of it for you." I said.

Senior Vernon crossed his fingers, rested his chin on the back of his hand, and said to me: "So, you have been helping His Royal Highness Qige manage the business in the firm in the imperial capital?"

"That's right." I nodded and admitted.

Senior Vernon continued to ask: "Then these will be your future career?"

I scratched my head, wondering if this firm is my business?The answer is no, it's Qiger's.

So I said: "Not exactly, you know that I am an inscription master, and there is a rune tablet workshop on the side of the imperial capital."

In fact, I wanted to tell Senior Vernon that my rune plate workshop in the imperial capital was also very profitable, but I thought it would be better to be tactful, so I didn’t say how my rune plate workshop was doing.

I didn't expect Senior Vernon to be wrong. He thought that maybe my rune plate workshop business was in a downturn, so I didn't continue to talk about it.

Senior Vernon was also worried that it would be embarrassing to continue talking, so he said repeatedly: "I know, due to the impact of the new rune board, the business of the rune board workshop has been very sluggish recently, even the rune board workshop of Ivan and Diego The board workshop is about to fail. It’s normal that your rune board workshop is not doing well. Fortunately, you have business with the firm, so you should be able to survive. But I think, in fact, you should give it a try. Make some fish skin hoods, that's what makes the most money."

"..." I was a little speechless, thinking about whether I should tell Senior Vernon that my rune plate workshop business is also very good.

But seeing him immersed in his own thoughts, he didn't say anything more.

Senior Vernon looked a little serious, and he said to me: "Jijia, I want to try to find something to do, but it's not easy to do anything now, the war of planes has messed up the economy of the Grimm Empire, magic herbs are now It is also very difficult to buy. The magic potion stores in the imperial capital can only be maintained. Looking at it now, the hottest thing in the Green Empire this summer is life-related magic items. Noah and I have already thought about it. If the lava surges 'Once the magic oven is successfully trial-produced, try to make this kind of oven, do you want to join us?"

Noah mentioned this to me a lot, but I didn't have the energy to do it with them, so I just kept procrastinating without a clear answer.

"I can't get away yet..." I said to Senior Vernon.

Senior Vernon gave me a clear expression, and said with a slightly emotional tone: "Sure enough, it's the same as what Noah said, well, if you change your mind, you can join us at any time."

"Okay!" I nodded and said.

Senior Vernon had a whim and couldn't wait to go back to the academy to discuss the magic oven with Noah.

At this time, the magic caravan has turned to Yulin Street, from the Qige business in the seventh block to the Magic Research Institute in the Tower of Pride, the way will pass the Royal Academy of Magic, so when the magic caravan passes the Royal Academy of Magic, it is at the door stopped.

Before getting out of the car, Senior Vernon patted my shoulder and said with a smile, "Thank you for taking me out to relax. I will try what you said. Maybe life will be different."

Seeing him jumping out of the magic caravan with agility, and running into the Royal Academy of Magic in three steps and two steps, his steps became much lighter. I think it must be right for Senior Vernon to find something, but...

"... What did I say?" I sat in the carriage and asked myself.

In the magic trading hall on the first floor of the Tower of Pride, I bought ten mithril ingots from a firm specializing in the sale of magic metals. Each mithril ingot weighed about five pounds, and I didn’t bargain much. Now the price of mithril is almost It has been completely transparent, and all magic merchants understand that raising their prices means shutting out business.

When I came to the Imperial Academy of Magic, I was not in a hurry to see Scholar Yerkes, but went directly to the Alchemy Department to find Scholar Francis, and asked him to prepare some mithril solution, which will be brought into the Xinliu Valley Demon Printing workshop, I am going to use Mithril to print the next batch of magic patterns on the arrowheads of the giant crossbow.

Scholar Francis was too busy, so he agreed without asking why.
