Chapter 382: Purchasing Over One Hundred Thousand Gold Coins

Except for the lack of secret arts, Beiluola's library is not at all inferior to the Golden Feather Palace.

After some selection, Luoning chose three magic books and one battle technique.

The battle technique "Wind Instant Step" uses the power of the wind to instantly increase one's speed, allowing one to quickly approach an enemy when it is difficult for ordinary people to track one's movements.

Not long ago in Anbian City, Ramsey, who attempted to assassinate Luoning, had used this battle technique, and it played a very good role in close-quarters combat.

The two magic books were the Wind Attribute magic "Heart Piercing Wave" and the Fire Attribute magic "Heart of the Earth".

Luoning was quite familiar with the magic Heart Piercing Wave; there were Heart Piercing Wave Magic Cannons in the Wushan Castle fortress, and their powerful piercing force was already capable of threatening Kaierluosi.

Beiluola is a Wind Attribute Magician and must have mastered this magic, but in the battle not long ago, he did not use Heart Piercing Wave, but instead used Pressure Harm, which had a larger range but weaker penetrating power.

Looking at it this way, he had indeed held back.

Luoning chose "Heart of the Earth" mainly considering that this magic has the temperature to melt iron into molten iron, and when he becomes a Magus, his Mental Power will leap forward, allowing him to manipulate external objects.

Perhaps by then, he could rely on his super-high Mental Power and, by borrowing Heart of the Earth, might be able to craft parts with extremely high precision?

Level 7 magic books and battle techniques were nothing to Beiluola, and he also promised to provide Luoning with two Level 8 magic books and one Level 9 Wind Magic Book.

It is just a pity that the other party is currently devoted to making Magic Potions, so Luoning cannot go up to the eighth floor.

In the next few days, he toured the city under the guidance of Falanzi.

Besides having many Magic Crystals, crystals are also very common in Shuijing City; in fact, before the Magic Crystal vein was discovered, this place was famous for its crystals.

Therefore, there are many crystal shops in the city, selling everything from small crystal ornaments to large crystal sculptures, a dazzling array of goods.

Looking at these crystal items, Luoning could not help but think of the porcelain of Wubei Territory.

Perhaps the future Gray Earth Town will also be like the current Shuijing City, filled with porcelain shops everywhere.

While touring, Luoning had Falanzi take him into the most famous crystal shop.

Last time when he was attacked in the Screaming Sea, Luoning had thought about manufacturing a Telescope.

It was just that during this period, he did not have the time to look for a crystal merchant.

This time, he took advantage of his free time to let the boss grind and polish a batch of Concave-Convex Lenses for him.

Such a small job would not be accepted by a famous shop at all, but who told him that standing beside Luoning was Falanzi, the great-grandson of the Lord.

The boss not only accepted it enthusiastically but even raised the priority of this matter to the highest level, letting everyone in the shop stop their work to craft the Concave-Convex Lenses Luoning needed as quickly as possible.

"Why are you crafting these things?"

Falanzi was very puzzled.

He listened to Luoning's description; these Concave-Convex Lenses were neither jewelry nor mirrors, and seemed to have no use at all.

Luoning smiled mysteriously, "You will know in the future."

Falanzi spread his hands, "Alright. Next, we should go to the Magic Chamber of Commerce; the Magic Energy Spirit Spring you wanted has been retrieved."

Luoning nodded and immediately walked with the other party toward the headquarters of the Silva Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce.

As expected of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, many magic medicines are sold here; not only is there Magic Energy Spirit Spring, but even Star Shine Grass is for sale.

Star Shine Grass generally grows on vast grasslands and can emit fluorescence at night; it looks beautiful but is highly toxic, and is generally used to make poison, selling for 200 gold coins per plant.

Magic Energy Spirit Spring is a specialty of the Purple Crystal Territory; it not only contains Magic Power but also has purification and healing effects, which can save lives at critical moments. Besides that, some high-level Magicians also use it as a material.

Because of this, the selling price of Magic Energy Spirit Spring is very high, at 100 gold coins per milliliter!

After some purchasing, Luoning chose to buy one liter of Magic Energy Spirit Spring and one hundred plants of Star Shine Grass.

In this way, the two most critical materials needed for the Awakening Potion were gathered, and the remaining Magic Container and Magic Beast Blood Powder were things Aierlong could handle himself.

However, when he came, Luoning carried over 130,000 gold coins, and when he left the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, only 16,000-plus remained.

In less than an hour, he had spent 120,000 gold coins; even though he is not short of money now, he still felt some heartache.

Fortunately, thinking that Aierlong could use these materials to make Awakening Potions, his heart felt a bit better.

When the time comes, some of these Awakening Potions will be used by himself, and some will be taken out to sell; with their efficacy, they will surely sell for a high price.

There are plenty of noble descendants who are just ordinary people, and they also want to become Transcendental.

Seven days later, Beiluola walked out of the laboratory.

A Great Archmage's Mental Power is undoubtedly good, but after researching wholeheartedly for so many days, Beiluola still showed signs of fatigue.

For him, physical fatigue is a small matter; the key is the psychological fatigue.

After these days of research, first of all, he confirmed that the Dragon Scale effect is very good, far from what any Griffin or snake scale can compare to, and the final magic medicine produced will definitely be worth looking forward to.

But what drove him crazy was that he did not grasp the blending of the Dragon Scale with other magic medicines, so much so that all the research and production these days failed.

A piece of Dragon Scale was wasted.

Helpless, he could only find Luoning to ask for a few more pieces of Dragon Scale.

Although the 500,000 gold coins had not yet been gathered, Beiluola provided 500 Magic Crystals and also took out several magic books, so Luoning handed the remaining four pieces of Dragon Scale to the other party.

"Then it's settled, you must come to Shuijing City in a month!"

On the eighth floor of the Mage Tower, Beiluola exhorted Luoning.

Originally, according to Beiluola's estimate, it would take two months to gather 500,000 gold coins, but Luoning's consumption of 120,000 in the city shortened the time.

According to the estimate of his grandson Landeer, the rest could be gathered in about a month.

"Rest assured, Mr. Beiluola, I will come over with the remaining Dragon Scales in a month."

Luoning smiled and said goodbye to the other party.

With Beiluola coming out of seclusion, he successfully obtained two Level 8 magic books and one Level 9 magic book.

Besides that, Luoning also obtained the design blueprints for the Magic Energy Ladder.

In Beiluola's cognition, the Magic Energy Ladder did not have the value of large-scale promotion, so he not only did not mind throwing the blueprints to Luoning, but even told the latter the method and process of crafting the Magic Energy Ladder Bottom Wheel.

Simply put, it was to have a Fire Great Archmage use Heart of the Earth to melt iron into molten iron, and then rely on Beiluola's powerful Mental Power to directly mold the molten iron into the shape he wanted in mid-air.

Saying it like this, Luoning not only discovered the correctness of his choice of "Heart of the Earth", but even found a side job for himself—a manufacturing master.

After he becomes a Magus, he can completely try to craft some things using this method.

Before long, Kaierluosi appeared outside the eighth floor of the Mage Tower.

Luoning jumped onto the dragon's back and waved goodbye to Beiluola and Falanzi.

This trip to Shuijing City had come to an end; he had fully achieved his goals and even gained the friendship of Beiluola.

With a Grand Magus providing a guarantee, it didn't really matter anymore whether Kaierluosi was exposed or not.

Watching the giant dragon soar into the sky, Beiluola looked wistful.

"After spending these past few days together, what do you think of Luoning?"

Falanzi respectfully replied, "There are many things about him worth learning from, such as his focus when practicing Magic, as well as his ability to learn. However, sometimes I feel his train of thought jumps too quickly, making it hard to know what he is actually thinking."

Falanzi brought up the Concave-Convex Lens and the matter of spending over a hundred thousand gold coins to purchase Magic Potions once again.

Beiluola was somewhat curious, "Go have that crystal merchant make another batch of those Concave-Convex Lenses and bring them to me to see."

He was also muttering to himself, "Using the Magic Energy Spirit Spring in combination with Star-Shine Grass—what kind of Magic Potion is he trying to make?"

After thinking for a while, Beiluola shook his head.

He looked at the four Dragon Scales in his hand, full of drive: "This time, I must succeed!" (End of chapter)
