Annihilated Lilith

Chapter 34 34. Magic Street (3)

The boss quickly came out from behind with a stack of square paper, put it on the counter and began to carefully outline the pattern with a quill pen.He moves very slowly, but the circles he draws freehand are all very standard, some overlapping and some intersecting.After finishing drawing the frame, he changed the pen, changed the ink to gold, and began to fill in the ancient words inside, and an exquisite and complicated alchemy circle was beginning to take shape.

"It will take a while, there are twelve magic circles to be drawn. You can go out for a stroll and come back in half an hour."

Although the boss didn't intend to withhold the wand, Emma and Hayward were a little tired from shopping, so they simply looked around in the store, then sat on the chairs and waited.

Half an hour later, the boss let out a long breath, and then called them over.

He carefully stacked twelve sheets of paper, then placed his wand on top of them, adjusting the angle.

Then, drawing his wand, he began to say the incantation composed of ancient words.

I saw that the magic circle emitted a dazzling light first, and then the topmost piece of paper began to burn from the edge.It is not accurate to say that it is burning, because although it looks similar to the scene of paper burning, there is no flame or smoke, and the paper is annihilated in the golden magic light.

As the first magic circle was completely "burned out", Hayward's wand lit up as a whole, and then slowly returned to dim.

Then came the second, third...

Emma was dumbfounded watching the process of casting the spell.This gold coin is really worth spending.

……

"Okay, congratulations. I believe this magic wand can make your study more smooth."

"Thank you boss, please help my friend to see it too!"

Hayward took the wand, impatient to try a few spells.

"Me? Let me forget it!"

Emma stared at Hayward viciously, how could she find a gold coin on her body.

Hayward laughed, took out another gold coin and handed it to the boss, then winked at Emma.

"Return the gift, this is the return gift."

Emma didn't have time to stop, and the gold coins were quickly collected by the boss.Now it's too much favor... She could only silently pull out the wand and hand it to the boss.

"Huh? Heartwood's wand."

These words sounded familiar, and Emma remembered that when she handed in the materials for the wand, the teacher who saw the branch also expressed similar emotions.

"Is there a problem, boss?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Heartwood used to be a sacred tree in our north. People still believed in ancient gods before magic became mainstream. Gods of thunder, wind, and fire, which represent the power of nature, were regarded by the northern people as Worship."

The proprietor raised his wand, and examined it carefully by the light.

"Because of the pure white trunk and blood-red leaves, and the blood-like sap that will flow out when the bark is cut, the heart wood is specially used to carve gods, so it has become a sacred tree itself and is highly respected. However Now there are fewer and fewer people who believe in ancient gods, and heart wood is becoming more and more rare."

"I see……"

"The body of the wand is 37 centimeters, and the core of the wand is made of a smashed mermaid tear. It is a pretty good water-based wand."

Mermaid tears were once thought to be the source of pearls, but later proved to be much more precious than ordinary pearls, containing a large amount of water elemental energy.The market has banned the use of mermaid tears to make ordinary jewelry, so those ancient jewelry made of mermaid tears have been sold at sky-high prices.

"Girl, I have to tell you something."

"Boss, please tell me."

"In addition to being a sacred tree, the wand made of heartwood also has a unique feature, which is that it can withstand up to 99 spells."

"99 ways?"

It was Hayward who exclaimed first, and she hurriedly asked, "How much can my wand bear?"

"Although your hawthorn wand is of good quality, I don't think it can withstand more than thirty hits at most."

"It's so different!"

"Don't be discouraged, 99 points only exist in theory. I think I'm already a good alchemist, but the limit is only 21 points. If you go up, you can't get into it. I'm just talking about this matter. Let me tell you, who knows if there will be some great opportunity in the future that will allow you to meet a mage or witch who is unparalleled in the world and proficient in alchemy..."

"Understood, thank you boss."

Emma smiled.

……

By accident, they got two powerful magic wands with 21 superimposed spells, and both of them were very satisfied.After returning to the hotel, I couldn't help holding it in my hand and playing with it.

"This trip is really worth it..."

Emma directed the three ice flowers to fly around with her wand, expressing her sincere emotion.

Hayward stood in the middle of the living room, letting several fist-sized fireballs revolve around him, like a strange juggler, not worried about setting things in the guest room on fire.

"I said... just treat this gold coin as my loan to you?"

"fart!"

Hayward cursed subconsciously, and after scolding, he realized that it was indecent, so he only coughed twice.

"If you keep being so polite, I'll secretly burn your collection of novels on fire!"

Emma shuddered, knowing that she was serious about what she said.

"And I think this is very good." Hayward put away the fireball, sat on the sofa and said, "Every time you cast a spell in the future, you will remind yourself that this is a gift from me. Only in this way can you remember my good wishes at all times. "

……

On the eighth day of the journey, which was also the last day of the tour, the two of them took a good stroll in the capital.

Although the huge bronze statue of Lilith can be clearly seen outside the city, it is still very shocking to actually walk to the feet.

Such a huge bronze statue was cast segment by segment on a solid foundation laid in advance.Before each section is poured, the lower part is carefully buried with earth, until it is finally finished and cleaned, it should be like a mountain made by hand.

After completing the prototype of the colossus, the surface should still be uneven with cracks everywhere.Next, it will take a lot of manpower to carefully polish and repair, and finally it will become what it is now.It is said that the entire project took a total of ten years.

Except for a cylindrical "skeleton" that directly penetrates the middle of the bronze statue, it can be regarded as hollow.However, this kind of thick metal, I am afraid that even the most powerful curse magic cannot shake it.

After admiring the colossal statue of Lilith, the two went to visit the temple dedicated to the ancient gods. Now its significance as a landmark is greater than its religious significance.The shape of the temple is very unique, reminiscent of the basalt columns seen in the famous hot spring lake two days ago, with weird and irregular shapes.

In addition to the main building, there is a taller minaret behind the temple, as long as you pay, you can climb a long spiral staircase to the top.Looking out from the window on the top floor, you can have a glimpse of the scenery of the king's city, which is the tallest building except the king's castle.

Looking to the north, you can also see the port of Wangcheng outside the city wall on the north side.Many huge sailboats were docked there, lined up staggeredly, judging from the fishing boats beside them, each one was about the same size as Ned Hogg.Of course, these sailing ships are not intended to operate domestically, but to cross oceans, go to other continents, and connect countries.

Before coming to the capital, Emma never thought that she would come so far north.And after actually coming to the capital, I found that the distance between my hometown and the capital was nothing at all.The world is divided into countless pieces by the vicious sea, and there is still an endless future that needs to be slowly explored.

As the sky darkens, the lighthouse in the port lights up.Looking down from a high altitude, the bustling capital also looks quiet, low-key and very charming.The street lights start to come on and people stroll the streets excitedly, bringing the whole city to life.

In the night, under the illumination of the lanterns, the ancient buildings with vicissitudes of life glow with a warm luster.Unfamiliar, yet kind.Even though the exterior walls of some buildings have become mottled and dull due to time, the majestic and magnificent momentum is still irreplaceable.

As the end of a journey, this situation couldn't be more appropriate.
