The Truth of Magic

610 Dragon Crystal mine

500 pages meant that he could copy 500 level 1 spells, 250 level 2 spells, 166 level 3 spells, and 125 level 4 spells.

The majority of ordinary mages wouldn’t be able to finish copying 500 pages of Orrin’s magic crystal even if they spent their entire lives.

Not to mention that the Orrin’s magic crystal in Zhao Xu’s hand didn’t even look like it weighed half a catty, and it was about the size of two normal apples. The five normal 100-page spellbooks would weigh about 15 catties.

Without a dimensional bag, it would be a burden for a normal wizard to carry it on their back, not to mention actually preparing a spellbook, which would require them to flip through all sorts of things.

How could it be as convenient as holding an Olin’s magic crystal!

Furthermore, this involved a deeper level of interest!

Copying spells would cause the spellbook to lose its spells, so he often had to pray to the goddess and offer 50 gold coins per page, similar to ” buying insurance.

Otherwise, if the imprint on the spell was polished off, it would cost 100 gold coins per page to copy it again.

this was also the reason that hindered the ” flow of magic ” in the entire magic system, and even suppressed the advancement of the entire magic civilization.

If borrowing a copied spell didn’t erase the magic traces of the original spell runes, then borrowing a spell book was essentially a ” cost-free ” thing.

Although most mages would not always lend out spellbooks to others to copy for a long time because they were preparing spells.

However, he could make a copy of a ‘spellbook’. After spending some time, if the borrowing fee was still 50 gold coins a page, he could return the original book after borrowing it twice.

A ‘spellbook’ was equivalent to a ‘Street that could be rented’.

Zhao Xu could tell what everyone was thinking, so he laughed and said, ” the cost of making Olin’s magic crystal was paid in advance with a secondary fee, so after you’ve finished copying all 500 pages, if you’re forced to borrow it and it turns blank, you’ll still have to pay 100 gold coins for each page. That’s for the materials for mental stimulation. so don’t even think about relying on one olin’s magic crystal to carry out endless arbitrage.”

although he said that, the light in everyone’s eyes did not fade at all.

In any case, the price of 6250 gold coins for one olin magic crystal was equivalent to compressing the price of 100 gold coins per page to 12.5 gold coins per page, compared to the original price of 50000 gold coins for copying. The mages would be able to laugh out loud even in their sleep.

The market would automatically eliminate any chances of arbitrage. Thus, an Orrin’s magic crystal, which cost 3125 gold coins and was normally purchased at 6500 gold coins in the mage Association, would be sold for nearly 50000 gold coins in the outside world.

the goddess’s blessing book still has 1000 pages. The system costs 12500 gold coins per page, so Olin’s magic crystal is basically half a blessing book. Zhao Xu explained.

but, without the blessing of the goddess, the book of blessing can not be effective. The female wizard, Qing Li, shook her head and said, ” therefore, the specialty of ‘creating wondrous items’ and the recipe of the ‘goddess’s blessing book’ can’t achieve this either.

that’s right. This is the advantage of Olin’s magic crystal that doesn’t have the blessing of the goddess. At this moment, natriya shook her head with a bitter smile. it seems like it’s all for naught.

After Gu Xing pointed out this point, it was as if all his fantasies were shattered.

“I didn’t expect such an ending.” The female wizard, flying cotton, also shook her head in disbelief. using two Orrin mana crystals on ordinary skeleton cannon fodder, that’s really a big deal.

maybe these skeletons escaped from a Lich’s lair. At that time, they stepped on five Houfei. Zhao Xu joked.

An average person would definitely be ecstatic if they encountered two Orrin magic crystals that had an actual premium of nearly 100000 gold coins. They would exclaim that a windfall had fallen from the sky, and from then on, they would be on the path of getting rich.

However, to ” natelya’s ” team, which had already formed a Chamber of Commerce, 100000 gold coins were just a life-saving price. It was naturally not worth it.

“I can’t blame you for the misunderstanding.”

Zhao Xu then took out another Dragon Crystal that looked similar from his pocket. There was still a faint, dark red vortex on it.

“This Dragon Crystal is an ordinary spell crystal. It’s the prototype of Olin’s spell crystal.”

However, compared to Olin’s mana crystal, this mana crystal could only copy 20 pages, and it also required silver powder worth 100 gold per page.

“No, we also saw this kind of spell mana crystal in those skeletons?”

what’s going on? ” nateluya suddenly asked, her eyes filled with disbelief.

“What about the quantity?” Zhao Xu couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“A lot of them.”

it’s time to go, ” said nateluya, her eyes glimmering.

“It’s a good thing that the first piece we appraised was an ‘Orrin magic crystal’. If we hadn’t appraised it as an ordinary’ spell crystal’, we would have missed out on these Orrin magic crystals.”

because after these spell mana crystals were appraised, they only had the effects of ordinary spellbooks and had no use at all, so we didn’t pay much attention to them and thought that these Orrin’s magic crystals were a special product of these spell mana crystals.

In short, it was similar to Mithril, which was a special extract from silver mines.

“It seems like there really is a ‘spell crystal’ mine? Or are these ‘magic crystals’ also processed products?”

Zhao Xu silently lowered his head. He couldn’t help but feel shocked.

Spell mana crystals were essentially “Arthur’s Dragon Crystal,” a hard, translucent stone that was similar to precious gemstones.

Arthur had refined many Dragon crystals on the surface, but they were usually added as ” powder ” to storage items.

therefore, it was understandable that the mage on the other side didn’t recognize the spell crystal. in fact, the composition of this thing was a kind of magic material.

However, the problem was that most of the dragonshards that Arthur discovered were finger-grade at most. They could only be ground into powder or embedded into gemstones as an alternative.

It was said that wearing this kind of jewelry could also bring good luck.

Only a fist-sized Dragon Crystal like this could be used as a ‘spell crystal’ to record spells. But even so, 20 pages were not as good as a blank spellbook that could record 100 spells for 3 gold coins.

The key to creating a blessing book of the goddess was the lack of the blessing of the goddess.

Zhao Xu couldn’t be so thick-skinned as to do this kind of blessing that used up a lot of divine power. He just had to make sure that the Book of Blessings would definitely succeed.

However, it could not be copied for others.

As for spell crystals, they could be made into Orrin’s magic crystals through a formula.

If he could find the ” mineral vein, ” Arthur’s progress in magic would change.
