Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 79 Blue Treasure (1st update, please subscribe and vote!)

The Cretaceous Country, the faded desert.

In the endless fog, Roy rode cautiously and came to a new area again.

The more he got to know this place, the more he felt that the name they had given it was not wrong.

Looking around, everything is desolate, all monotonous, gray and gloomy, and even the haze seems extremely dim.

This is caused by the witchcraft energy diffused in the air, and it is unlikely to dissipate in a short period of time.

This "short time"...

Thousands and thousands of years!

The entire world's ecology will be changed as a result.

Fortunately, the weather was good today, with sunlight shining through the clouds, providing relatively good visibility.

Through this, Roy discovered some shiny gem fragments through the reflection.

"These are power gems!"

He surveyed the area and looked surprised.

"Although it's a little broken, it's still worth at least one more magic stone!"

Roy's spiritual power spread, and he picked up the gem fragments scattered on the ground through the air.

Just as the name implies, I picked up money directly!

After working for half an hour and counting the items, I found that there were more than 2500 of them.

Upon closer inspection, there are even more tiny gemstone gravels, even particles and powder around!
"There's no way such a vast wilderness would suddenly show up with so many things. They must have been reduced to dust by some force, and then carried by the energy storm, settling down like sand!
Maybe the entire hill ahead is made of the same gem dust mixed with mud and sand!"

But Roy didn't plan to waste too much time here, because this was not a treasure that could bring about qualitative change, nor did it have any source of innate quality.

So I took out a simple map, marked it, and left decisively.

……

After that, Roy was busy all afternoon but didn't find anything worthwhile, so he chose to return before dark.

Oren, Baru, Melina and others also returned one after another. After exchanging information, Roy reported the "Gem Dunes" he discovered and named today in accordance with the alliance.

Everyone did the same thing, and the maps in their hands were updated.

Roy looked around: "Where's Senior Sophia?"

"I don't know, he didn't come back..."

"Forget it, leave her alone for now."

A few people felt a little strange about this, but they didn't pay too much attention to it.

After all, in a place like this, everyone is more concerned about themselves.

Unless some relics or treasures can be discovered in Sofia, it will be worth everyone's attention.

Next came the highlight, the treasure trading session that Roy was looking forward to.

He rubbed his fingers secretly, hoping to get some benefits for nothing.

The old actor's life energy crystal was taken out and displayed in front of everyone: "See if there is any treasure to trade. I plan to use it to exchange for something good."

Oren glanced at it and said, "I finally found something today. It's a piece of meat similar to what you mentioned before.

However, they are much smaller than what you found, and they do not have these crystals in their bodies."

Roy asked about the details, but after listening to it, he was a little disappointed.

The place that Oren discovered did not look like it could produce a second life energy crystal.

Next, it was Baru's turn to present.

He seemed to be in a good mood: "I picked up some mithril."

"Mithril? Is that the lightweight, magic-conducting metal commonly used by mages in the Arcane Empire?"

"Of course. Apart from this, are there any other mithril?" As he spoke, he took out a fist-sized sample from the space ring.

Melina took a look and said, "It looks like it's been eroded by a very powerful energy. It's burnt beyond recognition."

Baru said, "This is not enough to change its basic properties, so its value remains unchanged."

"This kind of thing has a wide range of uses, and since it's not produced in the wizarding world, its value has always been quite high!

I want to buy some to try, how much do you charge?"

Roy's eyes widened and he asked.

Mithril does not fall into the category of Zabir Magic Gold, so the bronze-level talent [Sulfur-Mercury Theory] cannot directly affect it.

but!

The Zabir Magic Gold involved in this talent is a special light metal made with mithril as the main material, called Flowing Silver.

It also possesses properties similar to mithril, and its magical conductivity is even better!
If you buy this mithril, you will be able to use your talent to process it.

Baru thought for a moment and said, "A fair price is 1000 magic stones per pound.

The unit of weight in the wizarding world is pounds, but Roy felt it was about the same as a jin, so he spent 2000 magic stones to buy it.

Next, it was Melina's turn.

She pulled out a bunch of odds and ends: "My gains are these..."

Roy remained calm and quietly used his origin-level talent [Eye of Hermes] to observe.

Suddenly, a few meters around, various gray, white, and green lights appeared, showing their own magical auras.

He has now mastered the basic usage of this origin-level talent. Normally, he does not enter the "identification" state, but just scans casually.

This allows for simple screening in a more energy-efficient manner.

The quality of items is actually a very general concept.

The composition of an item may involve multiple parts or different materials.

If you focus too much on details, it will become too tedious and troublesome.

He adapted to and adjusted the usage of the Eye of Hermes, usually just taking a quick glance, and only when he found something unusual would he go over and observe carefully.

However, Melina and the others had also learned identification, and even had more time and opportunities to observe carefully.

The good stuff had naturally been put away long ago.

There is nothing of high value in it. Even the green light is just a little bit. It is the quality of the material, not the overall quality.

However, just when Roy was feeling a little disappointed, he discovered a blue magical light again.

Second level quality!

A rare item comparable to a floating magic bead!

Perhaps because its magic power was restrained, it was treated as junk and was displayed so openly, but Melina and others didn't care much.

"It's a pity that you are unwilling to exchange for that crystal..."

She was still thinking about Roy's life energy crystal, and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"How about this, after you go back, try to keep it for a while, and I'll find a way to get more."

Roy pretended to be deaf: "How much are these things?"

"If you want, I'll sell it to you for 500 magic stones..."

"Okay, deal!"

……

After returning, Roy couldn't wait to take it out and take a look, confirming that it was a complete mechanical creation, about the size of a thumb, and looked like a dry cell battery.

It showed signs of having been taken apart for inspection, but Melina carefully concealed it, pretending that it was just picked up and in its original state without being disassembled.
