The mage arrives

( ) For the next three days, Gordon's life was quiet.

During the day, he stays at home, making rings, or reading a book.At night, they perform their duties and act as gravekeepers.

Among the six bought emerald rings, three silver rings have been successfully enchanted by Gordon and turned into the majestic ring.He reckoned that in the past three days, Douluo had fully understood the beauty of this ring after trying it out, so he decided to go to the ogre's scalp again to exchange the fruits of his labor for golden hard currency.

I haven't seen you for three days. Douluo's small shop, which was completely inconspicuous except for the scary name, has undergone major changes.After renovation and expansion, the store and the pharmacy next to it have been connected into one building.The store door is twice as large, and the blue brick exterior wall is painted with a layer of white paint, which is very conspicuous.

The signboard with the original unique store name was removed and replaced with a larger one with the words "Duro's Treasure Chest" written on it.The font is the most popular ancient Naisser font in the upper echelon of the empire, and it is drawn with special pigments, which can change into a variety of colors under different viewing angles.

The business area inside the store has been expanded by more than three times, and the brand-new shelves exude the smell of fresh tung oil, displaying various products for customers who come to visit.

Duro was still sitting behind the counter enjoying delicious refreshments. The only difference was that the dilapidated chair under his buttocks had been replaced by a luxurious and comfortable single-seat sofa.

"The store is nice," Gordon complimented.

"My savings have been almost wiped out to expand this little shop! Oh, may the Goddess Woking punish those greedy craftsmen. Do you know, Mr. Gordon, this is the sofa I'm sitting on now, that dwarf The craftsman asked me for two gold coins, two full gold coins! This is blackmail!"

Gordon didn't look at Duro's fat face full of exaggerated complaints.Du Luo is not so much complaining, it is better to say that he is showing off his wealth to others through this indirect way.

Gordon placed the three rings in front of the counter.

"Oh, the new work of the enchanter Mr. Gordon Freeman!" Duro hastily took out his single crystal glasses,

Gordon rubbed his nose, disapproving of the title Douro gave himself.

Being able to make first-level magic items, he is indeed an enchanter.However, in "Ancient Era", he is a master of enchanting who produced high-level magic items such as giant belts, protective scarabs, and purple love stones. Every day, countless players come to him with gold coins.

Now it's just a trick to make a small sex toy, and there is really nothing to be proud of.

However, after receiving 150 gold coins from Douro, weighing the full weight of the buckskin purse, the metal inside collided with each other, making a pleasing crisp sound, Gordon finally showed a smile from the heart.

Although there is still some distance from 3000 gold coins, a good start is half the battle.

The three rings made by Gordon this time are not only much better in appearance than the first debut, but also more powerful in function.Due to the use of better-quality emeralds, the second batch of three rings can use the "local enlargement technique" every two days, and the duration of the spell reaches one hour.Therefore, the selling price of the ring doubled to 50 gold coins.

"Wait, Mr. Gordon." In addition to the bag of gold coins, Douro took out another shiny thing from his trouser pocket and handed it to Gordon.

It was a silver brooch, drop-shaped, with a smooth surface, and nothing extraordinary about it.

Du Luo explained: "This brooch can use the communication technique once a day. My shop has hired a few new guys. If you want to buy something in the future, you only need to use the communication technique to notify me, and the goods will be delivered to your door. By the way , as long as you continue to sell the magic items you make to me in the future, all materials in this shop will be discounted by [-]% for you."

"Very good proposal, I accept." Gordon smiled happily and put away the brooch.

Gordon walks out of the Douro's new store.A green gleam suddenly flashed in his pupils, his eyes were like lightning, and he cast his eyes towards the corner of the long street.

There, several black shadows flashed past.

"Sure enough, someone is following me." Gordon thought to himself.

A few days ago, Gordon discovered that whenever he was walking in the city, whether he was working in the cemetery or going to the Douro store, he always felt like he was being watched.He felt that someone was deliberately collecting his own schedule.

So when he went out today, Gordon purposely gave himself the Angel Eye of Peng Yu.

This first-level spell can make the target of the spell have the sharp vision like a Pengyu angel. Rangers or rogues, who often serve as scouts in adventure teams, always keep a few angel eye potions in their bags.

It was with the help of this spell that Gordon spotted the mice that often followed him at a glance.

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. It seems that I have to prepare for an 'accident' that is likely to happen." Gordon can probably guess the origin of these stalkers.As a down-and-out nobleman, among the things he owns now, the only noble title and a beautiful younger sister are worthy of coveted by others.And there happened to be one man who wanted to take both from Gordon: Dunville Ritter.

The other party is very rich, and it is very possible to spend a few bags of gold coins to hire some desperadoes to deal with him.Anyway, because Gordon rejected Dunville's marriage proposal to Xiona last time, which greatly hurt the other party's face, the two sides have completely torn faces.

Because Gordon discovered his whereabouts, those stalkers retreated knowingly.

It has been a while since he was able to learn second-level spells when he was promoted to the third level, but because of time, money and other reasons, Gordon has not learned new spells.But in the face of the approaching danger, he must master more powerful spells to gain the ability to protect himself.

So, the bag of gold coins didn't stay on Gordon's body for a long time, and after a circle, it fell into the hands of other merchants.

Gordon first bought an exquisite hand crossbow and a box of twelve armor-piercing arrows from a blacksmith shop run by a shield dwarf in the city.

As a mage, while working hard to study arcane knowledge, he must also receive appropriate weapon training.Long sticks, daggers, and crossbows are all professional weapons for mages.

Especially when the level is low, the magic power is not strong, and the number is small, various weapons can largely make up for the weak combat effectiveness of the mage.

Gordon then went to a shop specializing in magic books and scrolls.He bought four second-level magic scrolls: second-level summoned creatures, light of Mercuria, spider web, and invisibility.

For Gordon, there are two ways to learn spells.One is to gradually understand the basic theory, formation principle, spell configuration, energy operation mode, and spell effect of a spell through reading books or teachings from others.Step by step, step by step to master the spell.

On the other hand, he can also learn spells quickly by reading magic scrolls.

Because the magic scroll is packaged into the scroll after the scribe directly made the spell.When the user reads the scroll, he can clearly and intuitively understand the fundamental principle and operation process of the spell from the spiritual level.

However, although it is convenient and quick to learn spells through magic scrolls, it is not without cost.Firstly, magic scrolls are expensive.A second-level magic scroll worth 30 gold coins can allow Gordon to learn one spell, while a copy of "Common Second-Level Alteration Spells" worth 50 gold coins can allow Gordon to learn five second-level spells!Moreover, using scrolls to learn spells also consumes the experience points in the experience pool.

Gordon returned home and took a rest first, so that his body and spirit could reach the best condition.Then he unfolded the first magic scroll.

The high-quality parchment that has been tanned with special magic potions is full of wonderful words.This is the dragon language, a language that every mage must master.These words are full of vitality, each one seems to be able to come out through the paper at any time, turning into profound magical energy.

Gordon collected his mind, concentrated his energy, and began to read the scroll word by word.

Driven by the syllables full of magic power, the words on the scroll began to bloom and glow.

"Do you want to learn the second-level spell: Light of Mercuria? It takes 100 experience points."

Gordon took a deep breath: "Yes."

The light emitted by the scroll is getting bigger and bigger.All the information and knowledge contained in that light were quickly interpreted and memorized by Gordon.

In the blink of an eye, the sheepskin scroll turned into smoke and dissipated in Gordon's hands.

"The study is complete, you have mastered the second-level spell 'Light of Mercuria'."

This evocation spell can create the golden light of Mercuria, the second layer of Mount Paradise, to attack the enemy, and it can also cause additional damage to undead creatures.It is a very suitable spell for Gordon who works in the cemetery at night.

Next, Gordon took a break and learned the remaining three spells one by one.

I just finished reading "Magic Web Principles and Energy" yesterday, and all the 400 experience points I got were exhausted.

For the next three days, Gordon stayed at home except to go to work at the cemetery.Although the purchase of hand crossbows and four magic scrolls almost used up his newly acquired 150 gold coins, he still didn't make the ring of glory, but seized the time to practice the four newly learned spells.

This day is the last day of September, the day when the silver moon is darkest in the autumn night sky, and it is also the day of mourning-similar to Qingming on Earth, a day when the living mourn and remember the dead.

Gordon checked his belongings and went out at night.

Clear Water City was surrounded by thick fog. Even standing on the shore, the sailboats in the center of the river could only show a vague outline, and often only heard the sound of water, but did not hear it.In order to avoid the collision of the ships, the captains ordered the high beams to be lit.

Gordon walked briskly down the street.Thick fog lingers around, making people feel like they have fallen into another misty world. Coupled with the dim moonlight in the sky, visibility is even worse. Even if there are street lights to provide illumination, it is almost impossible to see people five meters away.

"What a hell of a day!" Gordon scolded.

Gordon's back gradually dissipated in the thick fog, and several masked men emerged from the alley.

"Donion, he's out."

"Very well, tonight's dense fog and dim moon are just a godsend."

"Musk on top!"

"May the shadow protect us."
