Divine Civilization
Chapter 235 Bet? the bankrupt kind
...
President Wood's face turned blue, and he said with difficulty: "I don't have that many Philosopher's Stones..."
"Without the Philosopher's Stone, wouldn't it be enough to use other things of comparable value as collateral?" Jimmy waved his hand indifferently, and urged, "You should come first~ You won't be afraid to gamble, will you?"
President Wood gritted his teeth: "Of course not. 130 Philosopher's Stones are 130 Philosopher's Stones."
He regretted it~ regretted that he shouldn't run on Jimmy.
It's a pity, when it comes to this point, no matter how painful it is, you have to grit your teeth and persevere.
He took out the remaining 13 Philosopher's Stones from the storage ring, thought for a while, and then took out a key with pain on his face: "This is the key to my magic airship, a magic airship is equivalent to 150 Philosopher's Stones..."
Before he could say anything, Jimmy's staring eyes swept over him: "Who are you fooling? I'm a professional alchemist. The materials of your magic airship are worth at most 50 Sorcerer's Stones."
"How can this be calculated like this? Only the Magician Association has the blueprint of the magic airship. How much time and energy did I spend in making this airship..." President Wood argued with a blushing face.
After some bargaining, this magical airship was finally converted into 80 Philosopher's Stones.
"There are still 37 Philosopher's Stones left." Jimmy urged, "Get out something good. Don't say you don't have it, I don't believe it."
"..."
President Wood picked and picked in his space ring for a long time, and finally picked out a holy sword: "I found this holy sword in a ruin, and it's useless for me to hold it. It's just used to reach the end 37 Sorcerer's Stones~"
Jimmy glanced at it and said with contempt: "Don't fool me. The material and performance of this holy sword are very ordinary, so the fact that it comes from the ruins has a little research value, and it is worth 17 Sorcerer's Stones at most."
President Wood's expression was bitter.
Jimmy himself is a master alchemist, and he is very familiar with the materials and performance of various magic items. It is almost impossible to fool him.
Now he feels more and more that he seems to have dug a hole for himself...
It's a pity that riding a tiger is hard to talk about is now.
The sacred artifact he had pressed at the bottom of the box must not be moved. He had no choice but to take out a bunch of precious materials and magic scrolls.
Jimmy counted all the things, and quickly calculated the value in his heart: "These things are worth 19 Philosopher's Stones, and there is still one more Sorcerer's Stone left."
President Wood was almost pissed off by him: "Are you still so fussy about a Sorcerer's Stone?"
"Of course we have to care about it. This is a Philosopher's Stone!" Jimmy slapped the table and stared, not letting go at all.
President Wood was speechless, and unconsciously recalled in his mind the way Jimmy had held up a Philosopher's Stone at the beginning.
He wiped his face: "Okay~ I still have a small private island on the edge of Xingyue Lake."
"What's the use of having an island?" Jimmy frowned, "It's not as good as an alchemy material..."
Wood was so angry that he almost stood up and patted the table: "This is an island located within the Association of Magicians. As the owner of the island, you have the right to enter and exit the archipelago freely, and you can also build your own private laboratory on it. There are many in the association. The core members want it yet!"
Seeing that Wood was about to explode, Jimmy accepted it when he saw it: "Okay, okay~ Is it okay to count you as a Sorcerer's Stone?"
As he said that, he turned his gaze to Andrew, the royal holy magister: "It's your turn."
"……good."
Andrew watched President Wood being forced to jump, and his heart was a little hairy. Seeing him looking over, he simply started to take out the Philosopher's Stone.
"I still have 50 Philosopher's Stones."
Upon hearing this, President Wood immediately became jealous. After losing 40 Sorcerer's Stones, there are still 50 left. The royal family is indeed rich.
Andrew didn't know what President Wood was thinking. He thought for a long time after digging out the Philosopher's Stone, and finally gritted his teeth and took out a palm-sized golden ore.
"This is a piece of star gold, equivalent to 80 magic stones."
Jimmy curled his lips. He has seen a lot of Star Gold in Wu Hui's hands recently, and his enthusiasm for Star Gold has long since disappeared.
"Such a small piece of star gold is worth 80 pieces of magic stones..."
He habitually wanted to bargain, but just halfway through his words, Wu Hui's voice rang in his ears: "Promise him."
Wu Hui had long been paying attention to Jimmy with part of his spiritual sense, and when he saw the piece of "star gold" in Andrew's hand, his eyes immediately lit up.
The so-called "star gold" is actually the collective name for divine metals by the natives of the light plane. All the divine metals that come from the void and contain a lot of energy are called this name regardless of the variety.
But unlike these natives, as a god, Wu Hui knows very well that divine metals are actually divided into grades, and the value gap between them is quite huge.
Like the most common god iron, he now has more than a dozen tons in his hand, which is worthless to a powerful god. But there are also divine metals that are precious even to gods.
The piece of star gold in Andrew's hand is called "fine gold", the plane of comprehension calls it "Taiyi fine gold", and the plane of technology calls it "secret pattern gold". According to the classification of divine metals, it belongs to the second-level divine metal, which is quite rare.
For him now, this thing is even more rare, and it is not comparable to 80 magic stones. If you really want to win, you will definitely earn money.
After hearing Wu Hui's brief explanation, Jimmy's eyes lit up, and the words came to a sudden turn: "Is there any more?"
Andrew gritted his teeth, and took out another thumb-sized ore of the same style: "Is that enough?"
Jimmy curled his lips, seeing that he couldn't pick it out, so he gave up: "Okay~ I can barely count you enough."
"I still have 30 Sorcerer's Stones in my hand." Seeing Jimmy looking over, Ice Calamity Iswell took the initiative to confess without waiting for him to speak, "Use this to pay for the rest."
As he spoke, he took out an ice-blue horn and placed it on the table. Complicated magic runes were engraved on the crystal-carved horn, exuding a strong frosty aura.
Jimmy took a breath: "The horn of the Frost Dragon?!"
Andrew was also quite surprised, and couldn't help but said: "This is the most powerful holy artifact in your hand. Ice disaster, are you crazy?"
"You are too risky, in case you lose..." President Wood was also taken aback.
Don't look at him and Andrew with pained faces when they took things, but the things they took out were not really bottom-of-the-box things, even if they lost, they would not hurt their muscles and bones, and they would have no effect on their own combat effectiveness.
But "Frost Dragon's Horn" is different. It is one of the famous holy artifacts of Ice Calamity Iswell. Once it is blown, it can summon the dragon soul of the level 7 frost dragon sealed in the horn, and condense it into a dragon body with ice elements to participate in the battle. Once he loses, his combat effectiveness will be at least To lose a third.
"Needless to say. I'll just bet on this." Ice Calamity Iswell didn't care at all, and looked at Jimmy with a determined face, "The horn of the frost dragon should be worth 100 magic stones."
"It's worth it, of course it's worth it."
Jimmy swallowed.
The "Frost Dragon's Horn" can be activated as long as it consumes enough mana. Even if he holds it, it can exert its greatest power. It is a rare and best among holy artifacts. It is definitely a loss to discount 100 magic stones~
"Then it's settled~"
Iswell Shi Shiran sat down, picked up the coffee next to him and took a sip, and then said to the other three people's puzzled eyes: "If it is better than others, I may not be so confident. However, Karen He has been in contact with the ancient magic circle under my guidance since he was thirteen years old. The ancient magic circle of this level is not difficult for him at all. Just watch, the champion of this final must be Karen. Wood, Andrew, Just wait and see, Jie Jie Jie~
"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Andrew, the royal holy magister, stared coldly at the arrogant Ice Calamity, "Everything depends on the final result."
President Wood was also dissatisfied with the bragging of the ice disaster, and said lightly: "It's getting late, let's start."
Following the order of Keith Wood, the president of the Magic Association, ten magic protective shields were activated, enveloping each of the ten finalists including Wu Hui.
"Buzz!"
There was a buzzing sound in Wu Hui's ear, and the magic shield isolated him from the outside world, as if he was in an absolutely quiet and independent small world without any information interference.
On the ground, a small magic circle that looks somewhat complicated rises slowly, and a core is missing in the center of the magic circle. As for the core, it looked like an obsidian slab. The dense inscriptions and magic lines on the slate were similar to the electronic circuit boards Wu Hui had seen on Earth.
"It's interesting." Wu Hui glanced around the seemingly transparent protective cover, but couldn't see the outer protective cover, and felt a little emotional in his heart. From the previous virtual trial canyon and the use of various wonderful magic circles, it can be seen that the potential of the magic world is also very huge.
But this is also a very normal thing, the universe is vast, and the civilized races are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Among the memory fragments left by the old God of Light, there are countless strange races and civilizations he encountered.
Among the many civilizations in the universe, magic civilization is a very common type of civilization. Some highly developed magic civilization races have already been able to straddle the star sea, vertically and horizontally, and become the overlord of one party in the vast universe.
Of course, the common civilization is not only the magic civilization. For example, the scientific and technological civilization of Wu Hui's hometown Earth, or the cultivation civilization are common forms of civilization. In addition, there are many multi-form compatible civilizations, such as the dual-material civilization of technology and cultivation.
According to Wu Hui's information about the ancient magic age, the civilization that has been submerged in history is not low in development. At least, that is already a magical civilization that is qualified to enter the interstellar exploration and expand its influence to the sea of stars.
There is no doubt that these "magic pioneers" are trying to follow in the footsteps of their predecessors and develop a new magic civilization. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and this is also the reason why the old God of Light suppressed magicians in all directions during his rule of the plane.
However, Wu Hui had other ideas. Now his strength is too weak, and these magic pioneers can use it well, which is also a big help.
Just as Wu Hui was secretly feeling emotional.
The rest of the finalists performed differently.
Just like Stuart, Prince Charles, and Karen Glacier, they all looked confident, and they had already begun to calculate quickly with a pen and paper, looking very sure.
But Lawrence Campbell looked at the core of the magic circle in a daze. What the hell is this? Why can't I even nod my head halfway to understand. Drops of cold sweat fell from his forehead, well, I admit that when accepting the ancient inheritance, I abandoned those seemingly useless theoretical knowledge.
"God of Magic, please take care of me again." Lawrence knelt down with a "plop", praying to the magic circle.
The protective cover can only prevent the contestants inside from seeing the outside, and all of Lawrence's operations fell into the eyes of everyone, which naturally provoked a burst of ridicule.
But speaking of it, this question is indeed a bit difficult. Even Cody, who has been Jimmy Gunter's assistant for many years, is sweating profusely, shouting how difficult it is.
It made Jimmy Gunter roll his eyes twice. This kid usually doesn't study hard, but after finally reaching the finals, he was so useless.
As for the other mages with ordinary backgrounds, this wave relied on Wu Hui to enter the finals. When they encountered the final questions, they instantly revealed their true colors. It's not easy, and how can it be possible to get in touch with the foundation of ancient magic?
Seeing everyone's performance in their eyes, the three saint-level bosses became more determined in their hearts. They made eye contact with each other, as if they were conveying some kind of message?
"Hey, you three." Jimmy Gunter observed this scene keenly, and asked suspiciously, "Isn't it cheating?"
"Ahem~" President Wood said sternly, "We can't do things like cheating, but..." At this point, Wood looked at Jimmy with a guilty conscience, as if he had a guilty conscience.
"But what?" Jimmy Gunter felt uncomfortable and hurriedly asked.
"Wood, what's there to hide from him? If you can't say it, let me say it." Ice Calamity smiled, "Jimmy, based on how much you have won us before, this time the three of us have secretly Join forces. As long as any one of our three disciples wins, we will equally share the bet we won from you."
"What?" Jimmy fainted and said angrily, "Everyone used to be classmates, what are you doing?"
"Of course." The Royal Holy Magister Andrew said with a glare, "The alliance between us has not harmed your interests, we just want to win back our capital."
"But this time I bet 130 Philosopher's Stones, 10 of which are my capital." Jimmy always felt that he was being calculated, "How about you agree that I will take back ten Philosopher's Stones, so that everyone will not suffer. "
"Jimmy, Jimmy." Ice Calamity patted him on the shoulder gloatingly and said, "Isn't it just 10 Philosopher's Stones? We've worked so hard for so long, we must make some profit, right? Hahaha~"
Jimmy's face suddenly turned bitter. If Wu Hui can't win the final this time, it will be miserable. Wu Hui, Wu Hui, you must not lose the chain at the critical moment.
"Snapped!"
Wu Hui, who was competing in the protective cover, snapped his fingers calmly.
Grandfather Augustus, who looked like a loyal old servant, appeared behind Wu Hui like a ghost, and saluted very piously, "My lord, I can't wait to make meritorious service for my lord."
