Chapter 77: The middle-aged magic caster who patted the horse

With the consumption of skill points.

【Skill Points 45→44】

The ability of "Scroll making" appeared in the column of class skills.

Skill: Scroll making Consumption: 1~3 low-rank scrolls/5MP (magic consumption doubles for every three ranks improved) Introduction: Can make corresponding materials into corresponding rank blank magic scrolls (requires consuming more materials and magic).

Tang Zheng looked at the skill information on the panel, his eyes shining slightly.

Didn't expect.

The technology of scroll making was obtained so easily! For this kind of scroll manufacturing technology that was clearly modified by humans and had stronger adaptability, the disadvantage of "higher material and magic consumption" was not a problem at all for Tang Zheng.

Just like the ability of "Pharmacist", without higher-level herbs and materials in the game, it is naturally impossible to make high-rank potions.

And relying on "Paper-making" which can improve the rank with skill points, in terms of materials, Tang Zheng can completely achieve self-sufficiency, and the only thing he needs to consider is the problem of magic power.

"This should be a Second Rank magic scroll, right?" Tang Zheng suddenly asked.

"That's right."

The middle-aged magic caster first looked at Master Berolui on the side, and found that the usually old-fashioned teacher had no intention of stopping him, and while surprised in his heart, he took the initiative to explain,

"Magic scrolls made of normal sheepskin can only carry First Rank magic, but Second Rank magic won't work."

"This requires the use of magic scrolls made by combining sheepskin with the Second Rank "Paper-making" paper."

Tang Zheng showed a look of realization, curiously looking at the light golden liquid that had just soaked the paper: "What is this liquid?"

Having the technology to make magic scrolls is not enough! It also requires techniques and methods to inject magic into the scrolls.

He had no interest in apprenticing to a caster who could probably only use Third Rank magic. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Zheng naturally wanted to obtain the technology of making magic scrolls as much as possible.

The middle-aged magic caster subconsciously looked at the teacher again, and found that the other party was checking the magic scroll he had just made, still not paying attention to this side.

"It is a type of magic solution that maintains magic stability."

This time, the middle-aged mage's expression as he looked at Tang Zheng was full of goodwill, and even his voice had become a bit gentler.

Having been brought here by the teacher, he had originally thought that this black-haired youth's identity was simply somewhat extraordinary.

But looking at it now! It was likely that he had caught the teacher's eye.

"The learning difficulty of the Second Rank 'Paper-Making' is far beyond other magic of the same rank."

"Due to factors such as the caster's magic strength and proficiency, the amount of magic contained in the paper produced will vary to some degree."

"Therefore, when making magic scrolls, it is very easy to cause magic instability, leading to failure, or even resulting in some danger."

"This is why this magic solution is needed for stabilization."

Having said this, the middle-aged man looked at Master Beiluo Rui with a flattering expression and, without changing his tone, buttered him up: "Only the teacher can produce perfect Second Rank paper without the aid of magic solution."

So that's it!

Upon hearing the function of the pale golden magic solution, Tang Zheng's interest immediately waned, and at the same time, a look of pity appeared in his eyes as he looked at the middle-aged mage before him.

This flattery had backfired.

Back in the main hall, when this pedantic old man examined the Second Rank paper he had produced, he had put on an act and commented that "this level is considered excellent among his disciples."

Looking at it now, he was simply inflating his own ego.

His own Second Rank "Paper-Making" should be at the same level as Master Beiluo Rui's "Paper-Making."

Of course.

This was the merit of the "Player" ability, which had nothing to do with him personally, but that did not prevent the result from being the same.

No wonder he didn't even ask for his detailed information and directly asked if he was interested in becoming his disciple. As expected.

As the middle-aged mage's voice fell, Master Beiluo Rui, who was checking the magic scrolls, paused his hand.

"Today, how many blank magic scrolls have been produced?" Master Beiluo Rui raised his head, staring at the middle-aged mage with an expressionless face.

"The, the second one."

The middle-aged mage seemed to have sensed that the atmosphere was a bit off, and spoke with a stutter.

"You only produced two in such a long time?"

"Since you are so slack, go and clean this place from top to bottom." Master Beiluo Rui said indifferently.

The middle-aged mage was somewhat bewildered and aggrieved: "Ah?"

Making magic scrolls is not considered troublesome, but the process of selecting paper with similar magic levels, preparing the magic solution, and recovering magic power always requires time.

"Let me say it again?" Master Beiluo Rui narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, teacher!"

The middle-aged mage dared not argue and hurriedly turned to leave.

Having his little thoughts unexpectedly exposed.

There was no change in expression on Master Beiluo Rui's wrinkled face, and he still spoke with calm composure: "This is the process of making magic scrolls."

After finishing.

Master Beiluo Rui continued to walk deeper inside, though his pace was clearly a bit faster.

Under the other's guidance.

Tang Zheng followed him into a somewhat dim and crowded room.

That's right!

It could be described as "crowded."

A glance over revealed that the entire house was actually about 100 square meters, with nearly 1/3 of the area piled full of dense bookshelves.

On the wall directly opposite the door hung a huge, ancient map, with the rugged mountain terrain in the center seemingly dividing the entire map in two.

This is...

The map of the "Re-Estize Kingdom" and the "Baharuth Empire"?

Tang Zheng saw the conspicuous terrain of the "Azerlisia Mountains," and this thought flashed through his mind.

Besides that.

Many places in the room were piled with various strange and curious items; some were stone tablets, and others looked like parts taken from some kind of building.

The rest were various notes, scrolls, and animal skins of different colors.

In the corner of the wall, Tang Zheng even saw a complete adult evil spirit dog pelt; no wonder the other party didn't care at all when he saw the small evil spirit dog.

These things filled every part of the room, making the entire space feel extremely crowded.

"I know that you have many doubts in your heart right now."

"No rush, sit down and let's chat slowly."

After Master Beiluo Rui entered the room, his serious, pedantic, and even somewhat caustic expression dissipated quite a bit, and a trace of fatigue appeared between his brows.

Tang Zheng did not show any courtesy either; he walked to the opposite side and sat down together.

Master Beiluo Rui was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "That's fine too; talented people should always be different from the mediocre."
