Wizard: I crush the legend with my martial arts

Chapter 72 Holy Snow Crystal (please read, collect, and vote)
  "That's where the vein of holy snow crystallizes." Branta raised her finger and pointed.

"Yeah." Alphonse nodded.

As he got closer, Alphonse couldn't help but admire the magic of this other world in his heart.

The cave is not big, only about the size of a twenty square meter room.

But clusters of crystals inside are like clusters of flowers stretching out from the rock wall.

The crystal is transparent, but it emits a colorful and faint iridescent light.

These strange crystals are like stars in the underground. People's eyes can't help but be attracted, and they are immersed in this mysterious and charming deep realm.

"Holy snow crystals are very brittle and easily broken. Once broken, the magic power contained in them will be lost, so miners must be very careful when mining. We haven't mined much yet." Branta raised her finger and introduced. .

"Yes." Alphonse nodded, indicating that he understood, and walked closer to look at the crystal carefully.

Not only is there a rainbow light, but hexagonal ice crystals that look like snowflakes can also be vaguely seen inside the crystal.

This should be the reason why the name of this holy snow crystal contains the word snow.

Alphonse pressed his palm on a cluster of crystals, and with a little luck, the true energy condensed in his palm.

In an instant, I felt a cold and gentle aura entering the meridians from my palm.

This is magic?
  The true energy of the Xiantian Wuxiang Divine Art was originally the most resistant to foreign objects intruding into the body, but it did not resist this strange aura.

It's like knowing that this breath is harmless.

The speed of absorption is not fast, but this ray of pure magic power cannot be integrated with the true energy. Moreover, when it flows along the meridians on the hand to the Dantian, one can still feel that the magic power is slowly draining and dissipating.

It can't be saved at all.

Alphonse felt like a colander, with magic entering his body and escaping again.

Is this because he has no magic talent?
  Branta and the two soldiers widened their eyes in surprise.

Just because they saw a strange sight.

The cluster of crystals pressed against Alphonse's palm actually changed from transparent to pale in color, as if it had turned into stone.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, he didn't dare to disturb Alphonse.

After a while, as Alphonse stopped his hand, the cluster of crystals that had completely turned into white turned into powder and fell rustlingly, as if it had been weathered.

Before the absorbed magic power dissipated completely, Alphonse raised his hand and pressed it in the air, reciting the magic shield spell he learned from the summoner's notebook.

Instantly, a thin shield appeared in front of his eyes.

Branta was not surprised to see Alphonse using magic.

During the fierce battle on the city wall, he had glanced at the battle outside the town. He knew that Alphonse had cast a spell to summon shadow monsters.

I just don't quite understand why Alphonse, as a summoner, would fight the enemy in close combat, and his close combat ability is very powerful.

In fact, this can be regarded as an inherent impression. I always feel that the summoner hiding behind is physically weak.

Looking at many books and anime, there are many summoners who can fight more than the summoned beasts. For example, the Bone King, the bone dragon he summoned is not enough for him to crush at will.

Not to mention the many summoning schools in Dian, nine out of ten books have summoners stronger than summoned beasts.

It only took a few breaths for the shield to disappear.

The absorbed magic power is still too little to continue to infuse and maintain the existence of the magic shield.

If you want to use it for defense, it is too fragile, but it is better than nothing.

However, it was indeed a use of magic.

Alphonse has made a decision. If there are enough holy snow crystals to absorb the magic power, he can make a contract with the ant queen to enslave the monsters. The magic has a chance of failure and can only be cast on monsters. The amount of magic consumed is related to the weakness of the monster.

To put it bluntly, it is to beat the monster until it is seriously injured and dying, so that it loses its ability to resist, so that it will be easier to succeed.

But there are no precise values.

According to Alphonse's guess, the queen ant had already been possessed by the soul-stirring spell and had planted the seeds of loyalty. She would not resist and should not have to spend a lot of magic power.

But it’s always good to be a little more prepared.

"I need a batch of holy snow crystals." Alphonse turned to Branta and said.

"No problem, we still have the mined ones stored in the castle, I can give some to you as a gift." Branta replied without hesitation.

"There's no need to give it as a gift. Just deduct the amount from our remuneration. I'm not sure how much it will be. Let's get a car first." Alphonse didn't intend to take advantage of the Sweetwood family too much.

Holy snow crystals are worth a lot of money.

Since it is an alliance in the future, we can’t cheat them too much.

Anyway, you can sell whatever you can’t use up.

Branta heard the first half of Alphonse's words and wanted to refuse. After all, Alphonse was the hero of this war. If he hadn't brought the guards of the Cold Wind Territory to help, the Blue Feather Territory would definitely not be able to hold on, but Hearing Alphonse say he wanted a car, he laughed a little awkwardly.

He could only pretend to be retreating, and just agreed.

But he was secretly relieved in his heart.

When the amount was too large, he couldn't make any decisions on his own, and had to report it to his father, Baron Sweetwood.

Alphonse and the guards of the Cold Wind Territory only had lunch at the Blue Feather Territory, and then escorted several carriages on their way back.

One was for the remuneration collected, and there were several large boxes of gold coins; the other was for the holy snow crystals that were covered tightly with a tarpaulin.

This cart of holy snow crystals was half sold and half given away, and Baron Sweetwood only accepted a symbolic payment of two thousand gold coins.

The remaining carriages carried the wounded who had difficulty walking, as well as the seconded blacksmiths and their families, as well as their iron-making and casting tools.

It was said to be on secondment, but Baron Sweetwood asked the blacksmiths to bring their families with them, apparently intending to stay there permanently.

Baron Sweetwood also thoughtfully presented four horses to Alphonse, Mia and the two guard captains for transportation.

He was indeed very thoughtful and prepared a lot of dry food and drinking water for the soldiers to take back.

Although Lan Feather Collar is not too far away from Cold Wind Collar, it is not close either. It would take most of a day to get there.

Alphonse led the guards over, but he didn't bring much food. It would probably take until late at night to return to the Cold Wind Territory.

After a big battle, it's not a problem to go back hungry.

He originally planned to ask for some supplies, but without asking, Baron Sweetwood made appropriate arrangements.

It gives people a really good impression.

But thinking about it, he could ruthlessly give his daughter as a gift to apologize and ask for help. It can only be said that people have two sides, with a good side and a not-so-good side.

As night fell, Alphonse led the convoy in a hurry through a dense forest in the deep night.

Although there is a road and the light of the stars and the moon is shining on the road, the lush jungles on both sides still give people an eerie feeling.
