Protagonist:

Chen Yi

To speak of it, Magic Scrolls truly are a good thing; an ordinary Third-level Mage, relying on their own Spellcasting to cast a Wisdom technique, would need at least three to four minutes of preparation. But with a Magic Scroll, not only is the time shortened to being counted in seconds, the quantity they can release each day also increases considerably.

Of course, ordinary Mages would not be extravagantly wealthy to this extent; under normal circumstances, without over-level casting, most of them merely transcribe one kind of simple Scroll to carry on their person, its function merely being to save a certain spell's guidance time linking to the Magic Net before Spellcasting; even so, unless it is a Battle between Mages, they generally cannot bear to consume it.

But even this kind of simple Scroll that only consumes Scroll Paper and requires no other materials — Mages outside of Aristocratic Scions find it difficult to prepare fully; it is not that they do not know the benefits of Scrolls, but rather to save money.

Even those with wealth rivaling a nation would have countless pumps draining away funds, let alone Mages who are not good at management.

Timothy waved a short, small Magic Wand, circling in the air. Under his guidance, countless sheets of paper also fluttered in the air.

A group of Mages quietly observed below, most of them fixing their Gaze on 10 very large sheets of paper.

Those were the Xuan Paper Chen Yi had bought.

Because spells of different complexity, according to the Mage's ability level, occupy different Scroll lengths; according to Timothy's Explanation, the longer the Scroll, the easier it is to transcribe large-scale Magic, thereby possessing higher value.

Thus, Chen Yi specially went to the Supermarket, selecting the Xuan Paper with the maximum length — each sheet over 1.8 meters long, being Six-Foot Xuan Paper produced in the 1950s of the last century, each sheet costing over a thousand yuan. Stuffed into his bag, 10 sheets occupied a large space.

As expected, after the spell was released, 5 out of the 10 sheets of Xuan Paper, like Rocket launches, rushed straight into the High Altitude, and amidst countless white flocculents, gradually stabilized in the yellow-green boundary zone, then respectively dyed themselves with their own Colors.

"2 sheets of Level 7 Scroll Material, 3 sheets of Level 6 Scroll Material." Someone had already counted them out early on.

A Red Robe Mage trembled all over with excitement, saying: "Scroll Paper this large is truly rare; it is sufficient to produce Level 7 Magic 'Shocking Earth'."

"Three sheets of Shocking Earth, paired with two sheets of Meteor Fire Rain, capturing Kruude Fortress can be expected."

"Or Chain Lightning, invincible in field battles."

A group of people were all voicing opinions in low voices; gathered together, they were noisy enough to make one dizzy.

Chen Yi had just Frowned when Timothy noticed; he coughed heavily, then said Embarrassedly: "Master's bestowal is truly Generous; we are terrified and honored, terrified and honored. The Kingdom has prepared some tribute; please Choose what you like."

Calling them tribute and bestowal is merely a nice-sounding term for a Transaction. But after such a Description, a sacred aura shrouded everyone's faces.

The Crystal Screen Appeared in an instant before the Subway Gate.

Those thousands of sheets of paper were all collected by Timothy's wide sleeve into the prepared Random Chest in a single sweep.

Right at that moment, the Crystal Screen Flickered noticeably twice.

Under the originally unselectable "Strength Scroll" and "Agility Scroll" names, rows of options were suddenly listed.

Chen Yi immediately Laughed, his hand swiping across the Crystal Screen; sure enough, there were:

Strength Scroll Level 1, increases Strength by 1-3 points, price 200 Gold Coins...

Strength Scroll Level 3, increases Strength by 9-18 points, price 1800 Gold Coins...

Agility Scroll Level 1, increases Agility by 1-3 points, price 200 Gold Coins...

Agility Scroll Level 3, increases Agility by 9-18 points, price 1800 Gold Coins...

Still only Level 1 to 3 choices; it shows that the Crystal Screen, for unknown reasons, has once again increased the types available for exchange.

Truly don't know what principle it operates on.

Chen Yi thought, the smile on his face Unchanged; first he selected 10 of each kind, thinking it not enough, he selected another 10 of lower levels — Energy Recovery Potions are expensive; unless he comes to the Subway to exchange once every day, they are never enough; therefore, sometimes using Level 1 or 2 Scrolls, the effect doesn't necessarily decrease.

In Timothy's view, the Master's smile seemed to have multiple interpretations.

He couldn't help but rack his brains, using the attitude with which he had attentively served his own master back then, putting himself in the Master's shoes. He first thought of his own carefully designed language, using tribute and bestowal to replace the heavily monetary-sounding Transaction, seemingly better reflecting both parties' Identities.

The more he thought, the more he felt it was Correct; he secretly decided that in the future he must pay even more attention to the application of language.

Chen Yi Considered far fewer things. Since Childhood his family circumstances were superior; if not for this sudden calamity, he would originally be living days of stretching out his hand for money, swaying his hips to Consume, living brainlessly, just like those guys in the School.

As for now, besides necessary various events, he still couldn't be bothered to guess others' thoughts.

The upper right corner of the Crystal Screen displayed the Brand Logo 24.780, representing that all the paper brought this time was worth over 240,000; the fractional part was the remainder from the last Transaction.

After thinking briefly, Chen Yi decided each Scroll type would still be Made Up to 20, the rest all used to purchase "Energy Recovery Potions"; only this way could he, in the shortest time, Consume as many Scrolls as possible.

Otherwise, just sleeping every day would Restrict the number of Scrolls he could Use.

After familiar Clicking, Chen Yi gently closed the Crystal Screen. Timothy knew his Habit, immediately standing with hands upright, waiting for the Subway to activate.

Right at this moment, Chen Yi blinked, Suddenly asking: "Do you know what an Archaeopteryx is?"

"Timothy does not know." Grand Mage His Excellency answered after serious Consideration.

"Then do you know if there is any bird that has teeth?"

Timothy still answered that he did not know, but in a flash, he Hesitated again, saying: "Master, although the Saint Qiao Empire has many Birds, and we have not seen birds with teeth, in the notes of predecessor Mages, it seems it was indeed mentioned."

"Seems indeed?"

Timothy laughed Embarrassedly: "Not that we witnessed it personally, but it is said a predecessor, Master Wang Xuan, had a Mount that was a toothed bird."

Chen Yi's heart stirred, he hurriedly asked: "The Mount you speak of, is it like the Subway I ride?"

"Yes."

"Is there an image?"

Timothy Stunned for a moment, said nothing, his two hands waving in the air.

The space before him rapidly Twisted and gained Color; in no great effort, a Giant long-feathered bird appeared before Chen Yi.

This is an extremely huge Bird. Its Background is likewise the upper levels of the Mage Tower, but its neck is as tall as that stone Statue; the whole bird holds its head high Proudly, as if a god descending to the mortal world.

Its Feathers are bright as Paint, its whole body healthy flesh bulging; its sharp beak occupies one-third of its Body Length, and is full of terrifying sharp teeth; Staring there, a thick bloody smell seems to waft at the nose tip.

Compared to it, the little figure on the bird's body is ethereal, barely more than a Back silhouette.

There is no doubt, this is an enlarged version of an Archaeopteryx.

But what Chen Yi cared about most was the person on the bird — the previous generation's Master Wang Xuan, the second Master he knew of.

Unfortunately, they have all Disappeared, unable to answer his doubts.

The Subway Slowly started moving.

Chen Yi didn't say a single Sentence, until Outside entered the world where light and dark meet, only then did he sit back in his seat, his eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to find some special traces.
