I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 78 78. Evergreen Olive Tree

After confirming the type of this strange thorn, Cloya looked at Robert in confusion and said curiously:

"Rob, how did you know that?"

The butler did not hesitate at all, as if he had already thought of the answer: “I have barely come into contact with a member of the Sethen royal family before.

I learned from him that the Thorns of Justice were the magical plants that his ancestors cultivated through their belief in order.

The sect is actually the royal ancestors of Sethen. "

He talked about his past frankly.

That was the story before he was sold into slavery, and it was something the original Croa knew very well.

Viscount.

Rob's full name should be Gene Rob Nast.

He was a noble who was captured in the war between the Kingdom of Sethen and the Kingdom of Nolant that took place not long ago.

After that war, the army of the Kingdom of Nolant captured these nobles and chose to hand them all over to the Mage Association.

The Mage Association possesses many special means to ensure to the greatest extent possible that these nobles will not have any chance of escape.

As for whether the Mage Association would use these former nobles to conduct experiments that would make the church feel uncomfortable... that is the Mage Association's business.

It has nothing to do with the Kingdom of Nolant. They probably wish all these nobles would die.

After recalling these somewhat vague memories, Croa continued to ask: "What is the use of the so-called Thorns of Justice?"

Robert replied: "When each kind of Thorn of Justice is in its infancy, you can give it a hint so that it can resonate with the power of order and form a contract.

As long as the contract is followed, it will be integrated into the human body, not only being able to heal almost all hidden injuries, but also having a restraining effect on evil things.

But if the covenant is violated, the thorn of justice will gradually penetrate deeper into the body over a period of seven days. When the sun rises on the seventh day, it will be completely formed and can no longer be removed. "

He paused here and said, "It is said that the Sethen royal family used this method to create thorn warriors who are invulnerable to swords and spears, and can ignore most magic, and only then did they successfully establish a country.

But with the disappearance of order, the thorns of justice could no longer be cultivated. As a result, the Kingdom of Sethen gradually weakened and was eventually destroyed. "

There was a hint of sadness in Rob's voice.

But I can't hear much remembrance.

Croa was just interested in this ancient history, but he didn't say he was particularly interested.

He narrowed his eyes.

It's very strange, why is it called the thorns of justice? I always feel that it should be called the thorns of "contract" or "oath" more appropriately.

As for why the Baron was so "lucky" to get it.

He guessed that Kemoye must have obtained it from the Mage Tower of the legendary mage Ilist. It was normal for a legendary mage to have some adventures.

Now that we know its effects, the current situation is how to remove these thorns.

"If that's what you said, if Kemoye fulfills his oath, then he can pull out these thorns of justice."

Rob shook his head: “No, they will turn into ashes at night after seven days and become seedlings again, because they no longer have enough order power to absorb.

Master, I think he should be on the third or fourth day now, you just need to wait patiently."

Croix suddenly understood what was going on when he heard this.

No wonder Robert was so happy just now. Now this strange thorn of justice has no side effects, but can be used as a treasure to heal hidden injuries?

After learning about these things, he had an idea in mind and smiled slightly, saying, "Very good, you can tell me what reward you want."

"Think about it."

As he spoke, Kloa patted Robert's shoulder and slowly walked towards the carriage that was wrapped in white thorns.

Walked to the front of the carriage.

After taking a quick look inside, I was immediately shocked by the scene inside - Baron Kmoyer had been buried in thorns, and it looked like some kind of torture painting with religious significance.

White thorns grew all over his body.

Even under the exposed skin and blood vessels, you can see flowing thorns and flames.

"...伱."

He considered it for a moment: "Do you want me to help you get rid of it? Then I can help you."

Of course he said that on purpose.

You must not let the other party feel that they can solve the problem too easily. You must make the other party feel that they have to put in a lot of effort to remove it.

Baron Kmoyer poked his head out from among the thorns.

His tone was full of helplessness: "Master Kroya, as long as you can help me solve these, I am willing to give you the treasures I got in the ruins."

"Oh? What treasure?"

"It's an unknown demonic plant branch."

The baron signaled to the servants standing nearby, and they immediately took out a very exquisite crystal box, respectfully placed it in front of Cloya and opened it.

I saw a very complicated magic array carved inside the box.

The center points of these magic arrays converge at the base of a branch that is no bigger than a finger. It has a very green and natural color, with slightly rough wood grain and a faint glow.

Judging from the magic patterns of these magic arrays alone, this strange branch should indeed be some kind of particularly precious magic plant.

'What is it? '

He narrowed his eyes and performed the Astral Body Imprinting Technique.

His sight penetrated the surface of the branches and he could clearly see what was inside—a very dense astral body, tall, but somehow it looked familiar...

"Why does this star spirit look so much like an olive tree?" Just as the doubts arose, a hint came along.

Evergreen olive tree.

"..."

It turns out to be an olive tree.

Croa himself was planting olives, and he didn't expect to get a branch of another kind of olive tree. What is the difference between the Evergreen Olive Tree and the ordinary olive tree, and what level of magic plant is it?
He is very interested in all unknown magical plants.

But the problem arises: the magic circle of this box is still running, and there is a dangerous aura brewing, which is probably some kind of defensive measure.

If you want to get it, you must first unlock the magic circle.

"If this branch was obtained by Baron Kemoye from the legendary wizard Ilister's wizard tower... can the magic in the notebook be used to remove it?"

He thought about it carefully and decided to take it first and then take it slowly.

He temporarily looked away and looked at Baron Kemoye who was waiting: "Mysterious sealing array, if you can take it out, Baron, then you don't need me anymore, right?"

The latter immediately revealed a somewhat bitter smile.

"I understand. I also captured a strange magical beast this time. There are also magical plants and mountain goats that I searched for in the carriage over there.

As long as you can help me and my men get rid of these thorns, these things will be yours."

For the Baron, as long as these things could buy his life and the lives of his men, it would be absolutely worth it.

He didn't even mention the holy white iron stuff.

'It's going to cost a lot.'

He thought he was going to bleed profusely, but he heard Chloe's voice, which sounded like heavenly music.

"We have a pleasant cooperation. I am a person who abides by contracts. The holy white iron has been refined. Once these vines are removed, you can take them away with you."

Baron Kemoyer raised his head in surprise: "You..."

The wizard just smiled faintly: "If the batch of magic beasts and magic plants you give me can exceed the price of refined holy white iron, plus this branch of unknown magic plant, I will help you."

"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Baron."

"..."

The Baron's mood was extremely complicated for a moment. He did not expect that Croya did not raise the price, so he did not have to bleed a lot of money!
He felt grateful to Cloya.

And a little guilty.

"Thank you for your…"

When he was about to continue to thank him, a pair of light blue wings appeared behind Kloa, and light wind magic surrounded his body.

With a slight flap of his wings, he flew into the sky and disappeared, leaving only a trace of magical aftermath.

Kemoye: “…”

Just leave? Wait, this magic...

He was also a warrior himself and could feel the magical power. It seemed that this Croa Mage was close to level two.

If he really wanted to advance to the second-level mage, he would have to be more respectful to Cloya.

But he is clearly willing to cooperate...

Could he please help me think of a way to crack the next mechanism in the ruins?
He was willing to share some of the contents with Cloya.

While I was thinking,
Rob came forward and said, "According to the master's instructions, you need to live in a house by the sea and wait for him to remove the thorns for you.

Before that, I need to count the magical plants and magical beasts you brought with you for the master."

"Okay, I'll bother you then."

After discovering that Kloya was about to advance to the second level, he did not dare to neglect this butler - besides, he felt that this butler was a little special.

I am inferior to him in both momentum and majesty.

Should I say he is worthy of being Master Croa's steward?

It’s really special.

……

The reason why Cloya left in such a hurry was actually to set up the "treatment venue" in advance.

The castle must not be a place for these people to live, so he needs to think of a way to arrange an area.

During the flight, he thought back to what had just happened - he had said that on purpose.

Make the other party feel that he should pay more money, but didn't, so he will naturally be grateful to him - plus deliberately show strength close to that of a second-level magician, so that the other party will feel that he is not someone who is easy to bully.

In this way, with a two-pronged approach, future cooperation will definitely be smoother.

Since he didn't plan to leave the island casually, he needed someone to help him find various resources. Baron Kemoye was obviously a good candidate.

the most important is……

According to the special status of the Mage Association in the Kingdom of Nolant, if a noble surrenders to a mage, he can retain his title.

As a third-level wizard, he can already start planning things around him.

At least in this surrounding area, we need to arrange spies and manpower to understand the changes in the situation so that we can farm with peace of mind.

To be honest, he was very optimistic about Baron Kermoyer, and even more optimistic about the ruins he found.

It's normal for him to not go there in person but let his subordinates explore and provide technical support from behind, right?
