Volume 1 Feathering Chapter 57: Merchant Tros (Part 2)
If the two pockets of the magic robe only gave Levi a little surprise and the small space ring gave him a little surprise, then this magic book simply made him ecstatic.
He has never had a suitable weapon, so apart from summoning elements at the beginning of a battle, the rest of the time when he was not directing the team to fight, he could only draw the bow and shoot arrows to provide a little insignificant output.
But now with this enchanted magic book, in addition to improving endurance, he can do a lot more.
Grease magic, this is obviously a very good control magic!
Similarly, the two green-quality mage equipment are also very good because they provide mana, which is never enough for me.
The movement speed is based on one's own agility attribute. If the normal movement speed of 5 points of agility is 5, the running speed is 10, which basically corresponds to the movement speed and running speed in the real world. +1 may seem insignificant, but it is not bad at this stage.
He took all these things directly, then flipped through the enchantment magic book from left to right, and even couldn't let it go.
The merchant Tros didn't take it seriously. Wizards basically behaved the same way when they encountered magical items, and he was used to it. So he just started to give Levi a brief introduction and explained some knowledge about the magic book.
It turns out that almost all spell books have been specially processed. The covers of magic books are made of bones, ivory, wood, metal, etc., and the internal writing materials are made of dragon skin, parchment, linen paper, metal sheets, kraft paper etc.
It's too high-end for him, a traveling merchant, to obtain it for the time being, but right now this book is already quite good, and an ordinary 3rd or 4th level magician may not be able to use it any better.
After a brief excitement, Levi suddenly had an idea: "Tros, do you know that this grease spell can be ignited by fire?"
If possible, he could first cast a Grease spell to make the enemy fall to the ground, and then shoot a Burning Hand at him. Wouldn't that be great?
Merchant Tros shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir, that's a magical effect. I'm not sure if they can really be ignited. Perhaps you could try using the third-level magic fireball?"
Levi was immediately disappointed. He thought that if he could light the oil and then burn the person with fire, it would almost certainly cause more harm to the other party.
But if he has already learned the tier 3 magic fireball, would he still be short of this little bit of burning damage?
"Has no one ever thought of improving this magic?"
The businessman Tros couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Maybe, but I haven't heard of anyone succeeding. And even if they succeeded, it's not something a small businessman like me can know."
"Okay, I understand."
At this time, Levi gradually calmed down. The principle of this magic was probably similar to the one he mastered now, which was to grease the soles of his feet. Although the name contained the word "oil", it was not really greasing, but increasing the speed of movement by reducing friction. This grease technique should be based on a similar principle.
Taking another look at the other items on the table, he found that most of the usable equipment were of white quality.
It’s not that there aren’t high-quality ones, but they either don’t match the profession, or require various skills, or require attributes to meet certain standards, so even if you buy them, you can’t use them.
In the end, he picked out a few items and planned to update Donna's equipment a little bit.
As for the other subordinates, forget it. They all come with simple weapons and armor, and they can't use any of the best ones.
For example, the Mage Robe and Magic Pattern Boots, although they don't have any attribute requirements, the level requirements directly mean that they are out of luck. After all, ordinary soldiers only have classes, not levels.
The same goes for other rings. It is said that because ring-like items often have magical effects, they can only be worn by magic professions or at least elite units. Otherwise, they will not be effective even if they are forced to wear them, and basically you can only wear one.
If it is a hero unit like Donna, she can wear multiple pieces at the same time and all of them will be effective.
As for the last one, it is the quiver mentioned by the merchant Tros, and it does look pretty good.
Jungle Walker's Extended Quiver - Boomerang (Rare - Blue)
Effect 1: Extended quiver, maximum arrow capacity increased to 80;
Effect 2, Jungle Walker, passive skill, when in the jungle, movement speed increases by 15%, cannot be stacked with any similar skills;
Effect 3, Boomerang (Basic). Arrows in the quiver will automatically be given the basic Boomerang effect. 5 seconds after the arrow is shot, if the arrow is not destroyed, there is a 25% chance that the arrow will have the Boomerang effect and return to the quiver for reuse.
Requirements: Strength 10, Agility 10
Occupational limitations: Hunter, Archer, Ranger, Forester, etc. and their advanced or variant occupations
(It is said to be a magic quiver used by a wood elf ranger, but the craftsmanship of the maker is obviously not up to par)
Although it was disliked by the system, in Levi's opinion, this quiver with an extremely long name was still somewhat useful. It could hold up to 80 arrows, plus there was a 25% chance of flying back and forth, so theoretically Donna could have up to 100 usable arrows.
The common quiver she was using now only had a capacity of 20, but this time it was increased five times, and her endurance was greatly improved.
As for the passive skill of the Jungle Walker, it is just a bonus.
After choosing, Levi picked out a spear from the three green pieces of equipment that the merchant Tros first took out, and then planned to negotiate the final price with the other party.
He didn't care at first, but later he discovered that Tros was very cunning and deliberately took out so many good things for him to choose from. On the one hand, he wanted to get his jewel beetle eggs, and on the other hand, he probably didn't intend to give those gold coins to him from the beginning, right?
However, his eyes inadvertently swept across a black crystal on the corner of the table, and he was immediately attracted.
“This is…”
"Ah, this is a magic crystal. It contains the knowledge of Level 1 magic - Magical Weapons. A mage like you can fully master its power after using it successfully."
"Magic weapons? I want them."
He was not completely unfamiliar with this magic, because a wizard said on the forum yesterday that this magic could not only work on weapons, but also on fists.
The wizard coincidentally recruited a monk, and after using his magic weapon on the opponent, the output was unexpectedly good. He could even directly attack enemies that were ineffective against ordinary physical attacks, such as ghosts.
And he still remembered that Green Blade Village also had a task that required magic weapons, and the reward was very generous, 2 gold coins and a precious magic scroll.
The merchant Tros hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then looked at the pile of equipment that Levi had placed in front of him: "Well, sir, although this enchanted weapon is only a level 1 magic, it is not easy to seal it into a magic crystal. Moreover, once you learn it, there is a chance that you will gain the expertise to enchant weapons, so the price..."
As soon as Levi saw his expression and demeanor, he knew that the value of the equipment he had taken was probably much greater than the total value of those gold coins + two gem beetle eggs, so he looked like this. Was he afraid that he couldn't afford the money?
But it's no wonder. It is said that even if you spend time learning in a place like a magic academy, a 0th-level magic starts at 1 gold, and the 1st-level magic is several times more expensive. This magic crystal can be used immediately, which saves a lot of time, and there is a chance to comprehend some enchanting technique. Its price must be even more expensive.
Moreover, that enchanted magic book contained 2 level 1 magics, plus other miscellaneous things. Twenty gold coins seemed like a lot, but in fact, they were all gone in one go.
After thinking about it, Levi took out two eggs and the glimmering scabbard he had obtained from the kobold's treasure chest, and pushed them all over.
"Adding these together, how many gold coins will I have left, in addition to what I took and the money I owed you?"
The businessman Tross's face twitched: "There's still some left? Did you make a mistake? I don't care about you asking for money, it's good enough, how can there be any left?"
However, considering the other party's race and identity as a mage, today's guidance and persuasion to him, and the rapid speed at which the God-chosen heroes became stronger, he finally gritted his teeth.
"Yes, that's right, sir, you still have 1 gold coin left."
At worst, I can just put in a little more effort tomorrow and sell these stones to the surrounding villages that need them most. In short, I must not lose money on this deal.
Li Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, it's a pleasure to do business with you. If I have my own village in the future, I hope we can still maintain such a pleasant transaction."
Although it is still unknown whether it can be done and when it can be done, I will just paint a big picture for the other party first. Anyway, I have not promised a specific time.
The businessman Tross then smiled from the bottom of his heart: "It should be so, it should be so!"
Isn't the reason why I do this for the sake of long-term success?
If you can have a stable business that makes money, who would want to be a traveling merchant? Not only is it exposed to the wind and sun all day, but sometimes it is life-threatening!
