Mage? Spell Engineer!

Chapter 158 Spend money to get new ideas

"Money is not a problem." After the transaction with Duke Merovingian, Rorschach had a large amount of cash on hand. Rorschach's mental budget was within two thousand francs. If the other party asked to pay in gold coins, it should not exceed one thousand and fifty.

The exchange probability of physical gold coins and banknotes is now about the same.

"Then Master Rorschach, let's officially start. Customization is a tiring job, not only for me, but also for the customer. Every detail has to be finalized."

Fulcanelli first took out a basic staff. Rorschach saw that it was straight and about one meter three in length. A light cyan crystal was directly embedded in the brass base and connected to the staff body.

"The most basic style is no longer popular now. Only wizards in the countryside will lead it around." He unscrewed the head of the staff directly, and it was actually connected by threads, and took out a whole mithril stick from it. The inner core is engraved with dense circuits:

"You see, the wand head and the wand core store prepared spells together. The more magic circuits engraved in the wand core, the more types and quantities of spells can be stored."

He turned the staff upside down again: "The bottom of the staff stores energy." The tail of the staff was also wrapped in brass, and was also threaded and screwed down by the alchemist master.

Then he poured out five smaller pink crystals. Fulcanelli took them out carefully. The crystal responsible for energy storage was much purer than the staff crystal and should be of higher quality.

The master picked one up, and after the ether was injected, it gave off a faint pink fluorescence: "According to the recommended standards of the Alchemy Association, it can store the energy of fifty fourth-level spells, and the number of charging and discharging times is not less than twenty cycles. You require the release of six-level spells." Yes, after conversion, this group of crystals can only be released about five times at full state."

Is this a battery? It should be said that starting from the threaded connection, this basic staff had a familiar feeling in Luo Xia's eyes that it was made in Yiwu.

Anyway, it is impossible to encounter a fifty-round battle with six-level spells. Rorschach nodded: "Okay, not even that many." For Rorschach, the amount of mana is not a problem, the ability to store and instantaneous spells is what matters to him. needs.

"This will free up some space. In the past, the energy storage crystal was installed directly on the tail of the staff and exposed to the outside. Then when the mage cast a spell, for some reason, he always liked to knock the staff on the ground. No matter how good the material was, it would be damaged. Ah." When he said this, the master felt a little resentful, thinking of how many of his works had been destroyed in the past because of the mage's pretentiousness.

It's true, but Rorschach recalled Master Humboldt's oak staff: "Why are there pure wooden staffs, such as those used by the wizards of the Forest Tower? It seems that there are no such parts." If it is just a piece of wood, it will be fine no matter how hard it is hit on the ground. .

As soon as Fulcanelli heard this, he entered the previous "poetry recital" mode. Rorschach secretly thought something was wrong, but the other party had already started talking non-stop: "Master Rorschach, do you know the origin of the staff?"

I don’t know, and I don’t want to know. I’m here to buy things, not to take classes!

But the master alchemist did not give him a chance to interrupt, and picked up the crystal staff: "As far as I know, most of the spells of the Tower of Forest are inherited from the druids of the old era. They are actually transformations of divine spells. Their staffs It is even more necessary to strengthen the communication between the stick holder and the natural environment. Even branches can become 'staffs' after undergoing Druid rituals.

The earliest Semitic kings and priests made single-feathered scepters to strengthen their connection with the gods and enhance the power of their spellcasting.

In essence, this type of staff emphasizes 'power'. The head of the staff concentrates symbolic elements, and with this as the center, a weak symbolic field is spread out in the ether. "

He took out more sketch designs:

“The twin snakes entwined and the two wings on the top represent wisdom, dexterity and cunning, and can be added to the enchantment, transformation and illusion systems;

The shape of the torch and the corresponding crystal can bless the magic of a certain element;

It is similar to an oak staff with a pine cone or grape leaf on top, symbolizing prosperity and joy. It is effective for some natural and necromancy magic.

But the above styles are no longer popular, and they are all outdated. "

"Why?"

"With these fancy gadgets, wouldn't others be able to tell at a glance what kind of spells you are good at? This kind of self-reporting behavior is fatal in battle.

Therefore, later mages generally pursued spell casting efficiency and versatility. Most of the staff heads were directly made of materials that are compatible with ether, such as various types of crystals, and their symbolic value was almost zero. It was originally used by Barbarians of the Evocation Department, but now everyone just installs it with crystals. "

But it's a pity to see Fulcanelli's expression. Those symbolic staff heads better reflect the craftsman's skills.

The magic barbarian Rorschach, who is best at the evocation system, has a new idea. He thought that the boss' introduction to the history of the development of the staff was a waste of time, but he happened to be the most suitable to use a symbolic staff head.

That's right, the symbolic runes pointing to himself can be extracted from the core of the [Rorschach's Spirit Expulsion Technique] array.

"If I need to customize a symbolic staff head, can I use runes?"

"One is flat and the other is three-dimensional, which may affect the directionality of spell release." Fulcanelli narrowed his eyes as he spoke: "Can you show me this rune?"

Rorschach is a little hesitant about this. If it is carved in the scroll, not everyone will realize the meaning of the core symbol, but now it is to be used as a symbol. After Fulcanelli gets it, he cannot rule out the possibility of tracing it back to Rorschach himself. possibility.

When Rorschach didn't answer, the alchemist shrugged: "If you don't want to answer, I can engrave the mithril and brass alloy staff head myself. However, returns will not be accepted after the sale. You are fully responsible for whether there is any use for customers. .”

Rorschach picked up the crystal staff head and looked at the thread and had an idea: "Then can I have a crystal staff head or a blank alloy staff head?"

Fulcanelli was stunned. This was the first time he heard such a demand, but he quickly nodded: "Okay, you still have to pay more."

Then Fulcanelli took out the manuscript paper. From the paintings in the attic, it is not difficult to see that he was not only a master of alchemy but also a master of painting. He drew the design of the customized staff on the spot according to Rorschach's needs.

In the end, the entire staff is a little less than three feet long. It has no fancy decorations and looks just like ordinary people's ebony and brass walking sticks.

Inside is a universal wand core. Rorschach directly chose the one with the highest purity of mithril and the most densely engraved magic circuit. When the spellcasting structure is completed, the wand core will enter the activated state with the support of the energy storage crystal. When it is time to activate, Reactivating the staff head completes the instant cast.

The staff head was designed with a small crystal staff head and an alloy staff head according to Rorschach's requirements. The former maintains the shape of an ordinary cane due to the small size of the crystal, but the price is that Fulcanelli estimates that it can only store one spell.

"The effect of the rune staff head is entirely up to you."

For high-priced magic props, just like the fashion items and electronic products in Rorschach's previous life, they pay attention to appearance and various indicators, and they are divided into medium cups, large cups and extra large cups.

Coupled with the fact that Rorschach chose the core accessories and DIYed them himself, he seemed to have become a machine installer at the Different World Picture Bar.

After finalizing, Luo Xia paid a deposit of 355 lang. As for why there are zeros and rounded ones, it is because the total price was set at 1777. Seven is a good number, just like the price in the previous life was always eight or nine.

"Invite guests to pick it up in seven days."

Coming out of the canvas, Rorschach seemed to be covered in the smell of turpentine, which fortunately evaporated relatively quickly.

"This boss really likes to talk to people about starving me to death." Luo Xia had already missed the meal.

But thanks to the chatty boss of the Alchemy Workshop, Rorschach spent the money not only to buy a staff, but also to get new ideas that could be used in his own projects.
