my age of magic

Chapter 756. 256. The Cobbler in the Inner City
On the territory of the Duke of Samoyed, Tanton City is like a sharp sword inserted directly into the forest sea of ​​the Black Forest.

The mountain of Aconcagua is steep, like a huge chimney piercing into the sky. Tanton City is built on the gentle slope at the foot of the Aconcagua mountain. Lush alfalfa grows on this flat grassland. , Tanton City is close to the foot of Aconcagua Mountain, standing in the forest at the far end, looking at this side, the city seems to be built on the mountainside.

Through the glass windows of the restaurant, you can look up to the green old trees on the steep mountain of Aconcagua. A group of giant flying birds rush directly into the dense forest on the cliff. The gray clouds are constantly rolling and flowing in the sky, always giving people An illusion that the mountain is about to collapse.

This can't help but remind me of the scene when I met the Spider Warlord for the first time in the forest. I don't know how the Spider Warlord managed to climb up to the dragon's nest on the top of Yunyun Mountain and managed to steal the dragon egg. I guess the top of the mountain There must be other treasures out there.

At this time, the exquisitely carved wooden door of the restaurant was opened by a waiter standing at the door, and a noble gentleman in a formal dress came in from the outside, with a beautiful long sword hanging from his waist, and the buttons of the dress on his stomach were braced. He was bulging, and his hands were naturally caressing his stomach. When he walked, his leather boots stepped on the soleplate, making a "baji" and "baji" sound, and the sound was very heavy.

Perhaps it was because of the hot weather that a thin layer of grease appeared on the face of this noble lord. He kept wiping the hot sweat off his face with a handkerchief, feeling that his whole body was sticky. After a few steps, he could hear the heavy breathing in his lungs, like an old bellows in a blacksmith's shop.

An attendant followed behind him, fanning him with a fan coated with spices, and a faint fragrance quickly filled the restaurant.

The fat aristocrat hurried to our dining table, seeing the magic badges on the chests of Qige and me, he immediately put on a smile.

"You two honorable mages, if you interrupt me, I am a nobleman in the inner city of Tanton, Viscount Harrison Parker." The fat nobleman stood by the dining table, with his right hand on his chest, and his index and middle fingers pressed against his nobleman. On the medal, he bowed slightly and performed a very standard aristocratic etiquette to Qige and me, introducing himself.

His imperial language has a very unique accent, and when he speaks the last two syllables, his voice is always drawn very long.Apparently, this Viscount Parker usually pays attention to his attire. The neckline and cuffs of the dress are exquisitely embroidered, and the buttons are all made of sterling silver. The shiny ones are very dazzling. A viscount medal, that medal was polished very bright.

Before I asked him to sit down, he sat down on a chair next to him without any surprise. His bloated body made the oak chair 'creak'. Down, Viscount Parker's funny look caused Qige to turn her head, her eyes as deep as the sea stared at Viscount Parker, and then glared at him.

When Viscount Parker saw Qige's beautiful face, he was slightly taken aback, and a smile immediately filled his face.

He didn't show an obsessed look because of Qige's beautiful appearance, which made me look at him with admiration.Although he looked a little fat and reckless, he wasn't too repulsive, and he didn't give others a sense of stupidity at all.

Seeing that Viscount Parker didn't look like Brother Pig, Qige's face turned pale. She withdrew her superior gaze, but she still didn't intend to speak.

Although Qige didn't wear the medal of nobility, her attitude towards Viscount Parker made Viscount Parker realize that their identities were not equal.

He turned his gaze to me.

I bowed slightly, stretched out my hand and shook hands with the Viscount Parker.

His hands looked thick, and the palms were sweaty and cold.

I sat up straight and said to Viscount Parker: "Nice to meet you, my name is Ji Jia, what can you do with us?"

Viscount Parker smiled shyly, and then said straight to the point: "Magician Jijia, please don't mind, I'm sorry for taking the liberty to find you, but I actually found out that you have some black treasures in your hands. The magic crystal is the kind of magic crystal taken from the skulls of some spider warriors, I wonder if you still have any extra black magic crystals in your hand?"

I reached out and took out a black magic crystal from my pocket, placed it on the table, and asked Viscount Parker, "Is this kind of magic crystal?"

Seeing his oily cake face nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, I said to him, "Well, I do have some of these magic crystals."

Viscount Parker rubbed his hands, hesitating for a long time, he was a little embarrassed to speak, and blushed and asked me: "I don't know where you got these black magic crystals?"

I glanced at him, touched the nose with my hand, pondered for a while before saying: "These are the black magic crystals that we harvested during our experience in the Black Forest."

Hearing what I said, Viscount Parker's eyes lit up.He reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, turned around with difficulty, and waved to the followers behind him.

I saw the follower behind him holding a beautiful magic sealing box, and carefully placed the magic sealing box on the dining table. I didn't know what was in the magic sealing box, and the box seemed very important.

Viscount Parker smiled at me honestly, and signaled his followers to lift the lid of the magic sealing box. The icy breath gushed out from the magic sealing box, and a thick layer of frost condensed on the walls of the magic sealing box. Snowflakes floated out of the magic-sealing box, and I looked inside curiously. There were ten winter thorns planted in the magic-sealing box, and the power of those ice elements emanated from these winter thorns.

Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit sat beside me quietly. Her originally empty eyes seemed to have some light, and she opened her mouth tentatively, absorbing the power of the ice element emitted by the winter thorn grass.

Sister Guoguo's spirit of water element has grown very fast recently. Her current body seems to be condensed from the purest water element. The water keeps wandering and flowing in her body. Sister Guoguo's water The world of the elemental spirit is an extremely lonely world, because only I can see her.All water element magic powers and ice element magic powers are fatally attractive to her.

These winter thorns can provide us with more falling snow ink, and in the process of drawing the frost scroll, Qige and I discovered a secret about the frost scroll, that is to use different types of high-level ice attribute magic ink to draw frost The frost effect of scrolls and frost scrolls is also obviously different. In a word, the frost scrolls drawn with higher-level ice-attribute magic inks have stronger frost power.

By purchasing a large amount of winter thorn, you can create a large number of second-level ice magics such as 'Frost Nova', 'Ice Lance', 'Ice Wall', etc. Plane is not that popular.

Viscount Parker's eyes fell on his box of winter thorn grass, with a confident look in his eyes, and he said slightly proudly: "I heard that you are buying a large number of winter thorn grass here in Tanton City. Although this thing belongs to advanced magic Herbal medicine, but Tanton City is also one of the producing areas of ice thorn grass after all, I have a whole box of winter thorn grass here, if you still want to buy this thing, the price is negotiable."

I asked him, "Do you want to change the Black Magic Crystal?"

Viscount Parker said to me with a smile: "If it is in the imperial capital, one magic crystal can be exchanged for ten gold coins, but I will tell you, the market value of this kind of black magic crystal is higher than that of ordinary magic crystals. If you are willing to use If you exchange black magic crystals for winter thorn grass, then I can pay a premium. Each black magic crystal will be worth fifteen gold coins, and I will exchange my winter thorn grass with you. Ten winter thorn grass will exchange you for five black magic crystals. , I wonder if His Majesty the Magician Jijia would like it?"

I leaned slightly, stood up from the seat, and closed the lid of the magic sealing box casually. The strange brilliance in the eyes of Sister Guoguo's water element spirit finally faded away, and the blank eyes were empty, returning to the state of chaos.

Throwing five silver coins on the dining table casually, without saying a word, he directly pulled Qige out of the restaurant.

Viscount Parker looked at me in a daze. He didn't think that I would be noncommittal. He just stood up and walked straight away. With a faint smile on the corner of Qige's mouth, he followed me and walked straight out of the restaurant. Then, the side Katerina, Kalancuo and Takama who were seated also closely followed our footsteps and walked outside.

From the corner of his eyes, he could see that the expression on Viscount Parker's face was a bit cloudy and uncertain. Behind him stood a few followers who seemed to be waiting, as long as Viscount Parker gave an order, they would take action to force us to stay .

But until the five of us walked to the door of the restaurant, the Viscount Parker, who was sitting on the chair, just sat quietly on the chair, without the furious look I expected. It seems that the Viscount Parker is very calm. , I don't want to provoke two foreign nobles who are magicians at this time.

At this time, Qige stretched out his hand to cover the hood of Calmian's magic robe over his head, and walked out of the restaurant. I stopped at the door of the restaurant, turned around and smiled at Viscount Parker, who was a little absent-minded, and said, " One black magic crystal is exchanged for thirty gold coins, four winter thorn grass, we only need potions, not gold coins. If you figure it out, you can come to me at any time, you know where we live, don’t you?”

After finishing speaking, Qige and I walked away, leaving only Viscount Parker sitting in the restaurant sweating profusely, the wooden door of the restaurant kept opening and closing...

……

Then during the afternoon, Qige and I bought back several bundles of leathers of the second-level water-type monster swamp giant crocodile in several magic leather shops in the inner city, and put out a large-scale purchase of water-type monsters. The appearance of the leather completely muddied the stagnant water in the inner city, which was originally extremely quiet. After receiving the news, some noble families in the inner city sent people out to inquire.

No matter where they are, the nobles in the upper class like to hold dances and hold salons. Although Tanton City is a powerful city built at the forefront of the Hierro plane, the nobles in Tanton City also have their own circles. We will also exchange information, and soon someone inquired about some useful news. Brandon, the quartermaster of the Third Constructed Knights under the Duke of Samoyed, knew us.

Just when it was getting dark, Quartermaster Brandon and Felix came to the door together.

In fact, Qige and I just returned from the outer door. Qige took Katerina and Takama to hide in the room to process those magic herbs, the most important ones were the winter thorn grass.

I sat in the courtyard and sorted out the leather of the swamp giant crocodile that I bought back. These leathers are already cooked leather, but for making magic scrolls, this kind of leather is not light enough, soft enough. I need to use the most Skillful skinning techniques layer these leathers, and only the outermost layer of leather with natural magic patterns can make magic scrolls.

Kalancuo led a group of orc warriors to help me process the leather of these swamp giant crocodiles in the yard. The orc warriors are born to be the best leather makers. They have a very high talent for processing leather, just like the tauren Like being born to gather herbs, these life skills are innate.

If Qige hadn't had the idea of ​​shopping this morning, I'm afraid Qige and I would have been kept in the dark. We would not have known that these magic material stores in the inner city were dumping their hoarded magic goods, causing the entire Tanton City Many unsalable goods in the magic material market are always hovering at the lowest price.

Maybe it's because water magicians are very scarce, and many magicians are not very proficient in water magic, let alone the production of water magic scrolls, so many water and ice magic herbs are obviously very precious, and the price is not high. It is considered high, but it just cannot be sold because the market demand is too small.

As for the leather of those second-level water monsters, the swamp giant crocodile is simply because there are many swamps in the Black Forest, and the swamp giant crocodile is a large number of monsters in this black forest.

No matter where we go, Qige and I have a common hobby, that is, we always like to buy some materials for making magic scrolls. It just so happens that we have gained a lot recently, and we don’t mind spending more money. We usually buy some materials that we can often use. The magic materials that are available, not to mention that these magic materials are lower than the price of the imperial city, the price is so low that it can be discounted by half, so there is no reason for us not to buy them.

As for no Viscount Parker trading his box of winter thorn grass, it was because of Qige’s hint to me. Qiger told me after walking out of the restaurant that she was sure that Viscount Parker would come back to us because there was something in his eyes that could not be concealed. Living urgently, he urgently needs some black magic crystals.

It's just that I didn't expect that Qige and I would cause such a big shock just by visiting the magic shops in the inner city. It seems that these magic material stores in the inner city of Tanton City are all asking about Qige and me. Information.

Felix and Brandon sat in the yard, watching the orcs soak dozens of swamp giant crocodile hides in the liquid medicine with some dumbfounding. A pungent smell permeated the whole small yard. The orc warrior with superb leather making skills used a thin leather knife on the chopping board to carefully peel off the outermost layer of dark-grained leather of the swamp giant crocodile, and then dried it on a wooden rack.

This exquisite courtyard turned into a leather workshop, a magician led a group of orc warriors to become a professional leather craftsman...
