My eyes widened, and I asked the Yerkes Scholar, "Do you know what Lord Bruce is looking for me?"
”Yerkis Scholar and Lord Bruce in the Academy have been close friends for many years, and it is precisely because of Lord Bruce's recommendation that Yerkis Scholar was able to leave the El-City War Magic Academy and come to the Imperial Capital alone, and after three years of silence in the Imperial Capital, he announced the three primary magic pattern configurations to the Imperial Capital Wizarding World, which caused a sensation in the Imperial Capital in one fell swoop.He took a sip of black tea, then raised his head and said to me, "Well, it's probably about the announcement of the new rune plate drawings to the public." ”I asked, a little puzzled, "Haven't we already announced this?"
”"Mistress Bruce probably wants to compensate you in the name of the Academy of Magic."
The Yerkes scholar replied.It was snowing outside, and it was falling from the gray sky, and the snowflakes like goose feathers were constantly swirling in the sky, and they hit the glass windows with a whirl, and they piled up on the panes, and it looked a little cold outside, and a layer of frost hung on the glass windows.I leaned forward and lowered my voice to the Yerkis scholar, "Didn't you tell him that even if we publicly released the new rune plate blueprints, it didn't actually hurt our interests?"
”Although it may seem like sacrificing the interests of me and the Yerkis scholars in the matter of publishing the new style runes, we are actually the biggest beneficiaries.Even if the masters of the Green Empire have obtained some benefits in vain, everyone knows the production process of the metal magic pattern rune plate, but even if they know the production method, we have a huge advantage in the production cost, and by promoting the metal magic pattern rune plate, we can also sell the magic pattern drawings of the metal plate, and we can also provide a large amount of red copper solution to the magic market in the future.In this matter, the interests of the Babington family have probably been greatly affected, and these new magic runes will impact the market of the Babington family's primary blank runes to a certain extent.The Yerkes scholar spread out his hands, indicating that he had spoken.He said to me, "I said it, but he thinks it's a big event that can move the history of magic in the Grimm Empire forward, and for whatever reason, the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute should also give some comfort." ”Hearing this, I felt a warm feeling in my heart, and hurriedly ate the honey-glazed steak from the plate, wiped the grease stains from the corners of my mouth, and said, "Uh!
All right!
To be honest, I've been asking Master Bruce for help lately. ”I said to Ying Li, "You can wait for me here at the institute for a while, if you are bored, you can go to the trading hall below, or you can go to the magic potions department to see the trial of the new potions, and then we will go back to the Royal Academy of Magic together." ”Ying Li nodded obediently and said to me, "I'll wait for you in the trading hall on the first floor later, I just want to go to the Potions Shop to find out about the Potions market." ”Although Ying Li majored in identifying magical herbs, she also knew the most basic methods of preparing magical herbs, and for a potions master, it was natural that she needed to know the situation of potions in the magic market at all times.I was in a hurry to see Vice Dean Bruce, so I left the academy cafeteria with the Yerkes scholars first, and Ying Li and Helena and Becky were in no hurry, just here while enjoying the snow outside, while eating slowly, and they also added a dessert.Two weeks later, there will be the final test of the Royal Academy of Magic, and after the exam, there will be a two-month-long winter vacation, and I will also take this opportunity to go to the wild swamp of Strange Rock City to find the ancient altar, at the beginning, Vice Dean Bruce once told me that if you want to awaken the broken soul in the heart of Sister Guoguo's ice elemental body, you need three conditions: the soul horn that can awaken the sleeping soul, the soul gem that carries the broken soul, and the ancient altar needed to hold the awakening ceremony, only these three conditions are ready, can try to awaken Sister Guoguo's soul.Justes has a soul horn in his hand, and I auctioned a soul gem from the auction house, as long as I find the Ancient Altar, the three conditions for awakening Sister Guoguo will be met, but how to hold this awakening ceremony, I still need the help of Lord Bruce, he promised me that if I can meet these three conditions, he will help me wake up Sister Guoguo.So before I go to Strange Rock City, I still want to meet Vice Dean Bruce once and make an appointment with him in advance.Unexpectedly, before I could go to him, he actually took the initiative to find me.As the vice president of the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute, Lord Bruce manages most of the daily work of the Institute, and he is also the elder of the House of Representatives of the Imperial Capital Magic Union, and his usual work is also very busy.Scholar Yerkes and I sat down on the benches in the lounge area, and the people waiting at the door of Master Bruce looked strangers, probably not magicians from the Institute.Before the Yerkis scholars and I arrived, these people sat there talking in low voices.Yerkis scholars usually wear gray magic robes on the research side, and at this time there is a hood on the top of their heads to cover their faces, and the magic assistant of Lord Bruce recognized us at a glance and motioned for us to wait here for a while, and he quietly turned and walked into the office.At this time, I listened to these people waiting at the door of Master Bruce continue to talk in a low voice: "I heard that the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute has long had metal smelting technology, and this time I want to buy the formula of the red copper solution from the research institute." ”A middle-aged nobleman sitting on the far left side of the bench opposite said in a low voice.There was a magician sitting next to him, but obviously this magician did not have the badge of the Imperial Capital Research Institute on his chest, so he should not be an insider of the research institute, so he asked, "What did the Alchemy Guild say?"
”The middle-aged nobleman also sighed lightly, and then said: "The Alchemy Guild has been concentrating on the research of metal conversion in recent years, and my friend over there said that this metal solution formula does not belong to the Alchemy Guild, so I came to the research institute to try my luck." ”All around them, they were listening to the conversation between the middle-aged nobleman and the magician, and the middle-aged nobleman obviously didn't feel that these words needed to be kept secret or anything.The magician listened to the middle-aged nobleman talk about metal transformation, and after sneering twice, he said, "The metal transformation of the Alchemy Guild?
Hehe!
Is that the undead water of 800 magic crystals?
If I buy this recipe in my hands, I need to go without eating or drinking for at least two hundred years, and I must also have enough undead essence and transformed water elements to earn back this alchemy formula. ”After hearing the magician's complaint, the two magicians on the other side were obviously a little unhappy, and one of them immediately retorted: "No one forced your excellency to buy it, this kind of transaction is a voluntary act." ”It goes without saying that these two magicians are from the Alchemy Guild, and when they heard someone mocking the Alchemy Guild, they immediately fought back.The magician sitting opposite also said without showing weakness at this time: "It's a pity that the Magic Guild doesn't have the courage to let the Alchemy Guild publish the undead water recipe for free, haha." ”The two magicians from the Alchemy Guild were so angry that smoke rose above their heads, and said, "You think so beautifully!
”There are many noble lords in the imperial capital who will fund or recruit some magicians for their own use, this middle-aged nobleman and magician should probably have this relationship, and the two magicians on the opposite side should be from the Alchemy Guild, between three words, these two groups of people are like needles to each other, in fact, I still want to know about the transformation formula of undead water, to put it simply, it is to transform the essence of the undead into the essence of water through magic rituals.The Water Essence is a high-level magic material, and only high-level water elemental creatures can give birth to the Water Essence, such as the Water Contract partner of the Sean Scholar, but this water element is difficult to hunt.As for the undead essence, it is the essence that is bred in the soul fire of the undead clan, but this kind of undead essence is very rare in ordinary skeletons and zombies, at least it must be a ghost or vampire to precipitate the undead essence crystal, although it is not easy to obtain, but the undead essence is far easier to obtain than the water element essence, especially now that the Pai Plateau is invaded by the army of the undead, the strong people of the orc tribe will inevitably obtain some undead essence.Hearing them talk about the undead water, I suddenly realized that there was actually a huge business opportunity in front of me, taking advantage of the war between the orc tribe and the undead army, I should let the Ma Pai people buy a batch of undead essence in the orc tribe, no, at least I had to understand the market of the imperial capital's magic market before I was thinking about how to operate this matter, so I heard Lord Bruce's magic assistant come out of the room, walked in front of me and the Yerkes scholar, and said, "Yerkes scholar, Jiga magician, please come with me." ”Hearing the magic assistant say this, the air at the door of the office seemed to freeze instantly, and everyone closed their mouths because they were suffocating."
When we were about to walk into Lord Bruce's office, the group resumed chatting, and the middle-aged nobleman just now sighed again and again, "It's actually a Yerkes scholar, hey!
Why didn't I see it just now, in the morning, I also participated in the public release of the new rune plate drawings in front of the Mingshi Union Building, why didn't I see it just now!
”The magician sitting next to him persuaded him very sensibly: "Forget it, everyone has walked in, what are you still sighing there, think about it" Vice Dean Bruce got up to see off a group of guests, and I and the Yerkes scholar waited in front of the square table of the magic assistant, and when Vice Dean Bruce turned to return, he said to me with a smile on his face: "I have seen the design of your new magic rune board, and it is very cleverly designed. ”As he spoke, he took my shoulders and walked into the office, Vice Dean Bruce was a burly man, and he was very dignified in a wide magic robe, I just wanted to talk about this matter and push it to the Yerkes scholar, but he was directly interrupted, "Don't tell me that it was designed by Yerkes, I know Yerkis better than you, I have been a close friend with him for more than twenty years, although he has countless whimsical ideas in the primary magic pattern, but he is a very traditional magician, he said that the magic laws he adheres to will never try this new magic pattern." , but the wizarding world of the Grimm Empire should have fresh blood full of new ideas and vitality like you. ”I looked at the Yerkes Scholar, and the Yerkes scholar told me with his eyes that he hadn't said this to Lord Bruce.Master Bruce led us into the meeting area, where we sat down around a round table and the assistant brought us bitter tea with the flavor of condensation.Master Bruce waved his hand and said, "Since the magic giant crossbow bolts have shown great effect in the plane war, the magic union has sent a letter to the research institute, saying that I will come forward to persuade you to publish the design drawings of the new magic pattern, at first I ignored them, and then with the successive victories of the wars of Hiero, Lochi, and Angelaldo, the new magic pattern has also realized that the new magic pattern has shown great power on the battlefield, so it has been urging me." ”I'm a little depressed, and no matter what I do, the Magic Guild side seems to want to intervene.Master Bruce continued to say to me: "The Fishskin Hood incident before, the Magic Guild group did a bit too much, so I also pressed this matter again and again, and then I communicated with Yerkis in private, and he said to discuss it with you, but I didn't expect you to agree so easily." ”The reason why I agreed, in fact, is to make the market of the metal magic rune board bigger, so that more people can accept this new style of rune board.Lord Bruce said with emotion: "In the past two years, the new magic pattern has been attacking the city and grabbing the land in the magic market, and it is very savage to open up a world in the imperial capital, which shows that the new magic pattern rune board is overwhelming the traditional rune board, this time you can release the new magic pattern rune plate drawings publicly, this is also promoting the development of the Grimm Empire's magic rune board, in view of the contributions you and Yerkes have made to the new magic rune board, the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute feels that I will give you some rewards." ”He looked at the Yerkes scholar first, then at me, and said, "So I'm going to ask for your opinion to see what kind of rewards you need, epic magic staff, high-grade magic materials, a magic crystal, a forbidden magic book, a territory in a certain plane, or something else, you can bring it up, if you can meet it, the research institute will not be too stingy." ”Hearing Lord Bruce say that the research institute would give us a certain reward, I glanced at the Yerkes scholar, and the Yerkes scholar was not polite, and took the lead in saying, "If there is a suitable one, I would like a magic book on the magic pattern circle." ”"Jijia, what about you?"
Master Bruce asked with a smile on me.
