One Sneeze Destroys A Magical Civilization

Chapter 58 "White prostitution" makes people happy

Eat, prepare spells, and study for a while about the skills of casting spells.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zuo Si left the hotel and went to the gathering place of scholars and spellcasters in the XC area of ​​Calimport.

Unlike the hustle and bustle of other parts of the city, this place looks very quiet and orderly at first glance.

There are many large and small mage towers, libraries and garden villas on both sides of the road.

There are more than one-fifth of the pedestrians on the street, and all of them have very obvious magical fluctuations.

Basically, they are either mages, warlocks, or bards, or they wear magic items of high level.

And behind them are groups of servants and slaves.

Best of all, it's not like the Docklands, which is full of pickpockets and burglars.

And the soldiers on patrol are also very conscientious.

Once a suspicious person is found, he will immediately step forward to question him, and then quickly make a decision whether to arrest or expel him.

The cleanliness of the streets is almost comparable to that of a modern city.

Even on the edge of the desert where water is scarce, a large number of fountain landscapes are still built near the square.

In contrast, it is very difficult for the poor in the slums to even have a sip of clean drinking water.

With the address left by the businesswoman, Zuo Si quickly found a four-story minaret.

Before he had time to reach out to knock on the door, the originally closed door suddenly opened automatically.

"Thank God! You finally woke up before dark. Don't talk nonsense, come in quickly, I have prepared enough materials, let's start working quickly." Aisha stood at the door and urged.

"So urgent? You must have received the order, right?"

As Zuo Si asked, he followed the other party into the hall on the first floor of the mage tower.

Compared with the Necromancer in the Floating Void City—the one in Asta, this place is obviously much more beautiful, and some places look very compact and crowded.

Stairs and passages can only accommodate one person to pass through.

All kinds of materials, tools, scrolls and half-finished magic items are piled up in a mess.

The businesswoman replied proudly: "Of course! In fact, I have already received fifteen orders in advance. Many spellcasters, adventurers, nobles, wealthy businessmen in this city, and even some businessmen from the plane of the giants are interested in this kind of order. Energy storage devices have shown considerable interest. If the first shipments are delivered on time and with quality assurance, there will be more orders immediately."

"How broad is your business scope?"

Zuo Si was completely stunned by the energy displayed by the other party.

In particular, magic merchants who can freely travel between different planes for trade are definitely not accessible to just anyone.

Compared with the woman in front of me, Epke, the leader of the Thieves Guild who ruled half of the dock area, seems to have infinite glory, but he is actually a "brother within a brother".

"Otherwise, what do you think?" Aisha asked with a chuckle. "I am one of the very few magic item merchants in Calimport who have stable channels and can supply continuously. Of course, this is also partly due to my special blood. It makes it easier for me to deal with those cunning plane merchants. "

While talking, the two came to a workshop on the second floor one after the other.

The businesswoman pointed to the materials piled up in the corner and said, "Here, everything you want is here. I have just activated the permission, and you can use the stored energy of the mage tower as much as you want."

"You don't even buy me a cup of tea, but let me go straight to work?" Zuo Si couldn't help but complain.

Because the other party's impatient look reminded him of those unscrupulous capitalists on the earth who desperately squeezed their employees.

Aisha pursed her lips and responded with a smile: "Time is money, my young friend. For tea or something, there is still time to drink after finishing work. What's more, for every one you sell, you can also get 9100 gold coins share."

"Okay, you won. But I don't like to be interrupted when I'm working, so you'd better leave first. I'll call you when the production is finished."

Zuo Si randomly found a reason to send the businesswoman away.

After all, it is easy to find out such things as pulling wool in person, and it is more convenient to be alone.

"No problem, I'll wait for you on the first floor."

Without saying a word, Aisha turned around and disappeared at the end of the spiral staircase.

After the other party walked away completely, Zuo Si carefully cast a detection spell, and after confirming that there were no other monitoring magic or devices in the workshop, he immediately grabbed the small jars filled with silver metal particles in the corner and stuffed them into his pocket many.

Followed by a translucent filamentous substance like liquid mercury in the bottle next to it.

The former knew without asking, that it was Mithril, one of the famous magical metals in Faerun.

Its characteristic is lightness.

Under the same volume, the hardness and toughness of the best steel are almost the same, but the weight is only half of steel.

Whether it is making weapons or armor, it can save more physical strength for the user, and it will become extra flexible in battle.

The latter bottle contains a kind of spider silk called [Phase Spider].

Because this terrifying predator has the ability to travel between the etheric plane and the real world, its spider silk is actually a special form formed by the substance of the etheric plane mixed with its own magic power, which contains extremely powerful magical power , an excellent material for crafting robes, cloaks, and some other equipment.

Many people who don't understand magic or don't understand it often mistake the shuttle ability of [Phase Spider] for teleportation magic.

Needless to ask, Zuo Si used the guise of making energy storage devices to enrich his own pockets for these two expensive and hard-to-get rare materials.

But to fill his own pockets, he has no intention of cutting corners in the next production process.

Just the opposite!

Zuo Si has almost morbidly demanding requirements for crafting magic items.

It's like the combination of a late-stage obsessive-compulsive disorder patient and a perfectionist, who absolutely cannot tolerate any flaws.

With the ability of the creator profession, he completed the production of six energy storage devices in less than half an hour.

As for the rest of the time...

Of course, continue to pluck the wool!

Since the next door to the workshop is the library of the Mage Tower, after Zuo Si extracted some of the tower's reserve energy, he went directly into the library and began to quickly flip through the books and notes one by one in order.

Utilizing the ability of the [Thinking Library] to have a photographic memory, all the books on a shelf were memorized in the depths of my mind in less than forty minutes.

Those precious knowledge worth thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins were easily and successfully "prostituted" in this way.

The only regret is that there is no way to record spells through the [Thinking Library].

Because it is too abstract, it must be transcribed and studied slowly to master it.

Facts once again prove that "white whoring" can really make people happy.

However, considering that as the sky gets darker and darker, if you continue to "prostitute for nothing", you may be caught.

Zuo Si resolutely gave up and "whored" all the books in the entire library, and came to the first floor with the six energy storage devices that had been made.

The moment Aisha saw the cylindrical storage device, she stood up from the sofa and asked in surprise, "You got it done so quickly?"

"Well! Today's quantity is finally finished." Zuo Si nodded while pretending to be tired.

"Hard work! Here, I have prepared the best mint tea in Calimport for you. Come and drink two cups to refresh yourself. I just want to recharge them a little bit."

As she spoke, the businesswoman directly raised her hand and started chanting a spell.

In the blink of an eye, a dazzling and bright arc shot out from between her fingers, constantly jumping between several energy storage devices.
