Chapter 104: [Create Water]

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.

Three sets of "Big Dipper" flew out from inside Fengling Yueying and merged into the three spell models Gao De had chosen.

After a moment, the "+" signs after the three spell entries shifted, and the spell effects also changed somewhat.

【Detect Magic+】 (Divination School, Rank 0):

You can detect the aura of spells and spell items within 20 meters: determine whether there is a magic aura, and perceive the quantity and intensity of the magic aura.

After the magic aura's source is destroyed (in the case where the source is a magic item) or dissipates (in the case where the source is a spell), it will leave residual aura. If you observe with Detect Magic and orient toward these locations, the spell will indicate that there is a faint aura here.

The residual time of the faint-level aura depends on the power of its source.

The amount of information you can obtain depends on the time you cast the spell.

The range of Detect Magic is 20 meters, and the object must be within your line of sight.

Extra: In addition to spells and spell items, you can also detect the aura of creatures.

【Read Magic+】 (Divination School, Rank 0): You can interpret magic text on items: books, scrolls, weapons, etc., that cannot be interpreted in other ways; such interpretation usually does not release the magic contained in these texts.

In addition, once you have cast this spell and interpreted a certain piece of magic text, you can understand the same text later without having to seek help from Read Magic again.

Extra: In addition to interpreting magic text, there is a chance to interpret unknown text (the success rate is determined by the mystery of the text and the magic user's own knowledge).

【Create Water+】 (Conjuration School, Rank 0):

This spell creates two gallons (can increase with the magic user's rank) of sanitary potable water, just like clean rainwater.

You can create water in an appropriately sized area that can hold liquid, or an area three times the size mentioned above—this water can fall like rain, or fill many smaller containers.

If this water is not consumed, it will disappear after 1 day.

Note: Every gallon (about 4.8 liters) of water weighs about 8 pounds. One cubic foot can hold 8 gallons of water, weighing about 60 pounds.

Extra: For the first spellcasting of the day, you will be able to create other random liquids instead of water, including but not limited to honey, wine, poison, wastewater... You will obtain specific information about the random liquid created.

"This is a 'daily first draw'?" Although he added points to three spells at once, in the end, the extra effect of 【Create Water+】 attracted all of Gao De's attention.

His mouth twitched.

It was really because this extra effect was too eye-catching.

If the strengthening direction of 【Detect Magic】 and 【Read Magic】 still had traces to follow and could be guessed a little,

the extra effect of 【Create Water+】 seemed a bit too whimsical.

According to Gao De's understanding, it was a "lottery" opportunity once a day.

If he "drew" fine wine, that would be a huge profit.

The price of fine wine varied depending on factors such as quality, origin, and supply and demand. The price of 1 pint of fine wine could range from a few coppers to a few golds.

1 gallon = 8 pints.

2 gallons was 16 pints.

Even calculated according to the lowest-end ale, 1 pint of ale cost 2 copper coins.

Two gallons was 32 copper.

If he was lucky and "drew" high-end wine, then 1 pint might be worth more than 1 gold.

Two gallons, that was a value of more than 16 gold coins.

The only pity was that the water created by 【Create Water】, if not consumed, would only last for 1 day.

Therefore, unless he was preparing to pit people, even if 【Create Water+】 "drew" top-grade wine, Gao De could only enjoy it himself, and could even only enjoy it for one day.

The land reclamation, which he thought would take at least two or three more days, was suddenly announced to end on the second day, the 21st of the Harvest Month.

It was not that the land reclamation task was unfinished.

It was because the official forces of Kamengde City were also organizing land reclamation.

Both sides started land reclamation tasks from Kamengde City and Bremen City respectively, and now they had just converged.

So the land reclamation task was completed ahead of schedule.

After receiving the news, although Gao De was still somewhat reluctant, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

The "high-intensity work" that lasted for so many days had already exhausted his spirit.

In the final analysis, his strength was too weak, so he needed to keep his spirits tense all the time.

If he were a Rank 1 magic user or even a Rank 2 magic user, he would inevitably be much more relaxed.

In addition, he had not thought that this task would last so long before leaving the city, so he only replenished 5 sets of basic mana potions. This was a 15-day amount.

Therefore, four days ago, the basic mana potions in Gao De's hands had already been exhausted.

Even the five sets of Blue Light Potion only had the last small bottle left.

Without the assistance of magic potions to practice the guidance method, the turtle-crawling progress could be said to make Gao De feel uncomfortable all over.

Now that he could go back, it was considered a good thing.

The Bremen City official side was very generous.

Even though there was no need to carry out land reclamation tasks today, they did not take back the daily remuneration issued early last night.

Instead, they organized everyone to tidy up the camp and return to Bremen City together.

Setting off from the city on the 3rd, now it was the 21st, a total of 19 days.

Gao De's harvest was 95 gold coins and 5 complete points of source.

A fruitful harvest!

Compared to when they came, the road back was exceptionally smooth.

The ley line creatures on both sides of the official road had already been swept once, so there was no need to stop.

Plus, having been out for so long, everyone was eager to return home.

So it took nearly twenty days when they came.

The return journey actually only took two days.

When the main force, dusty and tired, saw Bremen City again, they actually had a feeling of being separated by a lifetime.

The magic apprentices they recruited for this main force were about five hundred people.

On the first night, nearly fifty people left, and there were still about four hundred and fifty people left.

After these days of land reclamation tasks, these four hundred and fifty people were sharply reduced to about four hundred and ten now.

With guaranteed logistics and healing magic users providing treatment, and facing mostly Rank 0 ley line creatures, there was still a death rate of nearly five percent.

The terror of ley line creatures could be seen.

What surprised Gao De was that when they broke up, Ma Qieyi, the leading magic user who had been with them for these days, actually took the initiative to find them and left them his address.

"It was a pleasure working with everyone these days. Although the task has ended and everyone has to disperse, you are still welcome to come to me for tea, chat, and reminisce when you have time!"

As soon as Gao De returned to his home at 237 Kamengde Street, he first went to the washroom to thoroughly wash his body.

In the wild, there was no way to take a bath, at most just wash his face simply.

After more than half a month, his body was already sour and smelly, and his hair was about to knot.

This made Gao De, who had always taken a bath once a day, feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Isn't there a spell similar to Cleanliness? It shouldn't be." Gao De muttered while bathing.

If there is a demand, there should be a corresponding spell.

Even Create Water exists, the realization difficulty of Cleanliness is obviously lower than Create Water, so it should exist, it's just that I don't know it, Gao De guessed.

After washing up, changing into the clothes he brought from Hogan City at the beginning, Gao De threw away the old clothes he took off.

After sleeping in the open for so many days, the clothes on his body were not only worn out and shabby, but also sour and smelly. Let alone washing them clean, Gao De didn't even want to look at them more than once.

After tidying himself up and taking the keys, Gao De left home.

There were still many things he had to do today.

He had to go to a restaurant to treat himself to a sumptuous dinner first.

Then go to the Hadun Hat and Clothing Store to buy two sets of new clothes, and then go to the magic potion shop to replenish the "Basic Mana Potion" needed for practicing the guidance method.

In addition, Gao De also had to buy several large-capacity containers to hold the random liquid created daily by 【Create Water+】.

Finally, he had to buy some gifts.

He was prepared to visit Ma Qieyi tomorrow or the day after to learn about the situation regarding the "Hogan Ley Line" from his mouth.

It had been twenty days since the reinforcements from Saint Xi En City arrived in Bremen City, so there should be some results.

However, the suppression of the Hogan Ley Line must not have ended yet, because Gao De specifically passed by the city square just now and took a distant look.

That shocking airship was still parked there and had not left.
