Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes

"Sister Claire, Anvis, let's open this box first, how about?"

Unlike Anvis, Pecara's gaze was attracted by the big box the first time she entered the room.

"Yes, but don't let your guard down. Know, 'A loaf is unbaked until it's fully toasted, no matter how far along it is.'"

After briefly looking at the interior furnishings, Claire nodded slightly, and after giving some careful advice, she also walked to the box, ready to watch Pecara open the box.

The box is also made of demon-hating alloy, with handles embedded on both sides, and a shield-shaped metal plate engraved with mysterious symbols on the front.

"Got it, I'm going to drive—"

Pecara agreed crisply, took two steps back slightly, the white gemstone on the ring on her little finger lit up, and then waved her wand and pointed at the box.

"Crack——"

The metal box vibrated, but it didn't open, as if it was locked.

"Pekkara, that metal plate should be a special kind of arcane lock, and a simple tapping technique won't work."

Looking at the metal plate, Anweis kindly reminded him.

There are many types of magic locks, including those that shape metal with magic.

Only by injecting magic power of a specific frequency can the inscription array in the magic lock be activated correctly, shaping the metal of the lock body into the previously set shape.

"I see……"

Because of her carelessness, she blushed a little, and Pekkara glanced at Claire on the side of her eyes, and found that she also had an expression of interest,

The rosiness on his face instantly spread to the base of his fair ears, and he couldn't help pointing his staff at the box in a somewhat unconvinced manner.

"Secret method - open the hole!"

"Crack--"

With Pecara's angry voice, the metal box made a loud cracking sound. The shield-shaped metal plate and the plastic metal that fixed the box cracked apart under the effect of destructive magic power.

Proclamation of the Great Thief?

The spell used by Pecara instantly brought back some memories of Anvis.

This secret method was created by the famous great thief, [Magic Thief] Ablinsi Sisti, in order to open certain treasure chests locked by special locks.

The first time he used this spell to steal the treasure house of the Santo's Mansion, Ablinsi was caught on the spot.

Because the moment the box was opened, there was a crisp sound like the firing of a magic crystal gun, which alarmed half of the guards in the city lord's mansion.

In his honor, later generations of thieves called this spell the Grand Thief's Proclamation.

In the game of Anvis's previous life, this magic was called the Great Lockpicking Technique by the players.

Although it will attract all enemies within a radius of 300 meters when opening the lock, its effect is indeed insignificant. Every unparalleled thief will find a way to learn.

The girl waved her hand again, and the lid of the box opened instantly, and the items stored inside appeared in front of the three of them.

The center of the disgusting metal box is separated by a thin metal horizontal plate.

Among them, the left half is filled with twelve-faced colorless transparent crystals divided into apples.

The right half is divided into upper and lower parts by another smaller horizontal board, which is filled with currency circulated in the period of the high elves.

The upper half is a silver gold coin and the lower half is a platinum coin.

"It seems to be a magic crystal, and it is still a high-grade magic crystal, but it's a pity..."

Claire flipped the pile of colorless crystals, then shook her head.

Even if it is stored in a sealed demon-hating metal box, it cannot withstand the scouring of millions of years, and the magic power in it has long since dissipated.

Now, they are nothing more than decorative crystals.

As for the silver and platinum coins in the other half of the box, it was a nice windfall.

Many nobles and mages are happy to collect these ancient coins,

Some aliens living in remote areas also recognized the value of these coins.

A silver gold coin is worth about ten silver coins, and a platinum coin is equivalent to five gold coins.

Anvis picked up a platinum coin casually, and looked at it carefully under the faint white light of the candlelight technique.

The size of this coin is much larger than the imperial gold coin, with a diameter of up to 3.5 centimeters and a thickness of about 2 millimeters. The 'Eye of Truth' emblem, which symbolizes magic, is engraved on the surface.

Under the white brilliance, the coin has an elegant metallic luster, cold and slightly sinking in the hand, with the unique smooth texture of platinum, which feels excellent.

After playing with it for a while, Anweis casually threw it back into the box.

Then, the three counted the amount of the two coins.

There are 14,285 platinum coins and 28,000 silver and gold coins.

This is a lot of wealth, but after the three people share it equally, it can only be regarded as a trivial matter...

Well, to Claire, it might mean something medium.

"Is that all?"

Pekkara muttered something in a low voice, with a bit of disappointment and listlessness in her voice.

After seeing the demon-hating alloy walls in the secret room, she even fantasized: Could this be the secret treasure house of some high elf nobleman.

You know, whether it is in the distant ancient times, or in those adventure-themed romance novels.

——The high elf nobles are always synonymous with the ninth rank!

Therefore, at the first sight of entering the secret room, Pecara's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the big box that looked very much like a treasure chest.

As for the two metal cabinets that looked like they were used to store sundries, she had already selectively ignored them.

The treasure chest in the ninth-level secret treasure house will definitely contain countless rare and precious secret treasures!

She even imagined just now that there might be ninth-level equipment accessories and magic wonders in the box!

But now, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment——

"Don't worry, Pekkara, we still have two metal cabinets that we haven't checked yet."

Claire spoke softly, with a hint of comfort in her watery blue eyes.

Although she didn't quite understand why the girl seemed a little disappointed, she still decided to comfort Pecara because of her kind nature.

"You're right, Sister Claire, let's check those two cabinets~"

Receiving Claire's comfort, Pekkara nodded to her gratefully, and adjusted her mentality.

That's right! Don't be discouraged, Pekkara!

It was just an ordinary box piled with sundries! On the other side, there are two mysterious and noble treasure chests that are very mysterious and noble at first glance. They are low-key and connotative on the surface, but they hide extremely ancient and powerful treasure chests inside!

Puffing herself up in her heart, Pecara turned her eyes to the back, and pointed her staff at the metal cabinet on the left——

The smooth mirror-like cabinet door squeaked slightly, and slowly slid open to both sides. All kinds of unknown substances in it were exposed.

There are countless divided squares in this metal cabinet, which should originally store some alchemy materials.

However, due to the same reason as the magic crystal, except for the shape of the metal and gemstone materials, the other materials have basically become completely unrecognizable.
