The Truth of Magic

Chapter 610 Dragon Crystal Vein

500 pages, 500 first-level spells, 250 second-level spells, 166 third-level spells, and 125 fourth-level spells can be copied.

Basically, the vast majority of ordinary mages cannot finish copying the 500-page "Olym Crystal" with their whole life.

Not to mention that the "Olin Magic Crystal" in Zhao Xu's hand looked less than half a catty, about two ordinary apples, and five ordinary 100-page spell books weighed 15 catties.

If there is no space item such as a dimension bag, it will be cumbersome for ordinary mages to carry on their backs, let alone actually prepare the spell book, and they have to go through all kinds of rummaging.

How could it be so convenient to just hold an Orin Crystal like this!

Moreover, a deeper interest relationship is involved here!

Copying spells, because it will lead to the loss of spells in the spell book, so you have to pray to the goddess from time to time and donate gold coins at 50 gold coins per page, which is similar to "buying insurance".

Otherwise, the imprint on the spell will be tempered, and it will cost 100 gold coins per page to re-transcribe.

This is also the reason for hindering the "magic flow" in the entire magic system, and even suppressing the advancement of the entire magic civilization.

If borrowing and copying spells does not wear away the traces of the magic power of the original spell runes, then borrowing spell books is essentially a "costless" thing.

Although ordinary mages may not always lend out spell books for others to copy because of preparing spells.

But it is possible to make a backup "spell book". After spending a lot of time, if the borrowing fee is still 50 gold coins per page, the two borrowings will be paid back.

A "spell book" is equivalent to "a rentable street" once and for all.

Zhao Xu also saw through everyone's thoughts, and laughed directly, "The production cost of Aolin Fajing is to pay the transcription fee in advance, so after the 500 pages are transcribed, if they become blank due to borrowing, you will also have to pay 100 gold coins per page. The cost of copying is to sprinkle silver powder on it for inscription. So don't think about endless arbitrage with a single Aolin crystal."

Even so, the light in everyone's eyes did not fade away at all.

In any case, the price of 6,250 gold coins for an Aolin Magic Crystal, compared to the original copying cost of 50,000 gold coins, is equivalent to compressing a page of 100 gold coins to 12.5 gold coins per page, and mages can laugh out loud when they fall asleep.

The market will automatically smooth out the space for arbitrage, so the price of an Olymp crystal that costs 3125 gold coins and is purchased by the Mage Association system at 6250 gold coins will skyrocket to nearly 50,000 gold coins when placed outside.

"The Goddess's blessing book has a full 1,000 pages, and the system price is 12,500 gold coins per page, so the Aolin Crystal is essentially half a blessing book." Zhao Xu explained.

"However, without the blessing of the goddess, the blessing book cannot take effect." The female mage Qingli shook her head and said, "So relying on the expertise of 'making strange objects' and the recipe for making the 'goddess blessing book', it is also impossible to make the blessing book effective." achieve this."

"That's right, this is the advantage of the Olympian crystal that doesn't need to be blessed by the goddess." At this time, Natilya smiled wryly and shook her head, "It's just that it seems that the bamboo basket is empty."

After the lone star on the opposite side pointed out this point, it seemed that all illusions were shattered.

"I didn't expect it to end like this." The female mage Fei Xu also said in disbelief, "It's really a big deal to use two Orin crystals to inlay ordinary skeleton cannon fodder."

"It's possible that these skeletons escaped from a lich's lair, and there's nothing wrong with stepping on them at that time," Zhao Xu joked.

The two "Olym Crystals" with an actual premium of nearly 100,000 gold coins, most people would be ecstatic when they encounter them, and they would sigh a windfall, and they will embark on the road of sudden wealth from then on.

But for the "Natiluya" team that has already established a chamber of commerce, 100,000 gold coins have become their life-buyer, so it is naturally not worth it.

"I don't blame you for misunderstanding."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu continued to take out a similar-looking "Dragon Crystal" from his pocket, with a faint dark red swirl still shining on it.

"This dragon crystal is an ordinary spell magic crystal, and it is the embryonic form of the Aolin magic crystal."

However, compared to the Orin Magic Crystal, this spell magic crystal can only transcribe 20 pages, and when transcribing, it also needs to use silver powder worth 100 gold coins per page.

"No, we have seen this kind of magic crystal in those skeletons?"

Suddenly, Natilya opened her mouth and said, her eyes revealed an unbelievable look.

"What about the quantity?" Zhao Xu couldn't help asking curiously.

"a lot of."

At this moment, Natila spoke, her eyes also shimmering.

"It's also fortunate that the first piece we identified was the 'Olym Crystal'. If we hadn't identified the ordinary 'Magic Crystal' first, we would have missed these Aolin Crystals."

"Because these spell magic crystals are very common spell book effects after identification, and have no use value at all, so we don't pay special attention to them, thinking that these Olympian magic crystals are special products of these spell magic crystals."

In short, it is similar to Mithril, which is a special refinement in silver mines.

"Just from this point of view, is there really a vein of 'magic crystal'? Or are these 'magic crystals' also processed products?"

Zhao Xu lowered his head silently, unable to bear the shock in his heart.

Magic Crystal, essentially "Arthur Dragon Crystal", is a hard translucent stone similar to precious gems.

Many "dragon crystals" have also been refined on Arthur's surface, but they are generally used as additive materials for magic storage items, usually in the form of "powder".

Therefore, it is understandable that the mage on the opposite side did not recognize the magic magic crystal. In fact, the composition of this thing is a kind of magic material.

But the crux of the problem is that most of the "dragon crystals" that Arthur found were finger-level, and their purpose was to be ground into powder, or they were used as alternative gems to be embedded in jewelry.

According to legend, wearing this kind of jewelry can also bring good luck.

And a dragon crystal with such a big fist can be used as a "magic magic crystal" to record spells? But even so, 20 pages is not as good as a 100-page blank spellbook for 3 gold coins.

The key to making a goddess blessing book is that it lacks the blessings given by the goddess.

Zhao Xu couldn't brazenly do more of this kind of blessing that consumed his divine power. He just tried his best to guarantee that his blessing letter would be a success.

But other people cannot reproduce it.

However, magic magic crystals can be made into "Olin magic crystals" after crafting recipes.

In other words, as long as he finds this "mineral lode", perhaps, Arthur's magic process will be changed for this reason.
