Chapter 79 Constant Magic

Seeing that it was impossible to continue talking with Brian Edgar, Tang En had no choice but to return to the lord's mansion with the Zhantie sword.

The current attributes of the Iron Slashing Sword are very average. Although Brian used steel for forging, since no magic metal was added, this is just a blank piece of equipment, and there are no additional attributes.

However, Tang En liked this sword very much. The commemorative significance of this iron-slashing sword was even greater than its actual significance, so he planned to commemorate this sword with a few spells, and it would be comfortable to look at at home.

use? No, no, no, Tang En wouldn't use this sword at all. He needed a melee weapon, and he could just grab the enemy's. How troublesome it is to bring your own weapon.

The constant spell effect is similar to enchantment. It does not require the magic affinity of the equipment, but it is more difficult, and of course it is relatively more powerful.

A piece of equipment can stabilize several spells, on the one hand, it depends on the quality of the equipment itself, and on the other hand, it depends on the strength of the magician.

Tang En's strength is needless to say, but the key is the endurance of this iron-cutting sword.

"Since it's called Zhantiejian, let's keep a 'Purgatory Shock' first."

Purgatory Blast is a fifth-level fire spell. After being constant, users can use Purgatory Blast once a day without consuming it, causing terrible flame damage to a large area in front of them, um.

The magic brilliance in Tang En's hand flickered and condensed into a strange rune that sank into the body of the sword, and a layer of faint red light appeared on the Iron Slashing Sword.

"...can withstand fifth-level spells?? Then continue, and keep a constant 'Aura of Elegance of the Wind'!"

The hurricane condensed into a small rune in Tang En's hands. Just by looking at it, one could feel the powerful power attached to it. Afterwards, Tang En pressed the rune on the sword, and the Tie Zhan sword immediately trembled violently. Standing up, the blue light entangled the sword body with the whistling of the wind, and it took several minutes for the violent trembling to subside.

"Although it's a bit intense, I feel like I can keep one more spell constant."

Twain was already very surprised. The most time he had before was to stabilize five spell effects for a magic robe, but that magic robe was sewn with precious eternal gold thread, so it could withstand it so strongly. force is normal.

But now what he has in his hands is just a long sword made of ordinary steel. Although he has used the folding forging method and steel-clad craftsmanship, it still can't change his nature of being an ordinary metal.

The halo of elegance of the wind is a sixth-level spell, and he was surprised that he could withstand it like this.

Tang En raised his eyebrows and decided to take another risk: "It's better to keep the 'Great Power Technique' constant."

The Great Power Technique is a Tier 3 spell, and the load requirements for the equipment are slightly weaker, so the third constant was completed very smoothly, but the Iron Slashing Sword also trembled more intensely, and it took more than ten minutes this time. After stopping, Tang En also knew that Zhan Tie Jian had reached its limit.

Tang En raised his eyebrows: "One third-level spell, one fifth-level spell, one sixth-level spell...is that equivalent to fourteen spell slots?"

In the game "Chaos Invasion", the concept of spell slots is different from that in DND. The spell slots mainly count the ability of magic equipment to withstand constant spells. Tier 1 spells occupy a spell slot, while Tier 9 spells occupy Nine, and legendary spells cannot be constant at all - at least not with the player's strength.

An ordinary high-level equipment usually has five spell slots, that is, it can bear at most one fifth-level spell, or two second-level spells, and one first-level spell.

It is precisely because of the constant existence of spells that PVP is full of variables. It is very likely that a low-level trumpet took a seemingly inconspicuous weapon and asked a high-level mage to keep the high-level spells constant, so a big one often appeared. The trumpet wanted to bully the trumpet, but was suddenly killed by the trumpet's spell in an instant...

What do the fourteen spell slots mean? It means that even if this sword is a blank slate, after the high-level mage has stabilized the spell, it has equipment no less than excellent level.

However, there is another important thing. The five spell slots can be up to a fifth-level spell, but it does not mean that it will be successful. The higher the level of the spell, the higher the requirements for the quality of the equipment, and the stronger the load, just like Slashing Iron Sword, with fourteen spell slots, theoretically it can hold a ninth-level spell and a fifth-level spell, and a soldier can easily become a god with it... But is this possible?

Of course not.

Tang En was almost sure that the constant ninth-level spell would fail 100%.

Why?

Because the quality of the Iron Slashing Sword is simply not enough to support the load of ninth-level spells, the huge magic power circulation will completely collapse the sword the moment it enters the sword body.

Judging from the situation when the spell was constant just now, this steel sword can only withstand a sixth-level spell at most, and there is no need to think about a seventh-level spell.

After the spell was stabilized, the sword looked very extraordinary, with soft elemental radiance shining on it, it was not ordinary at first glance.

Looking at the Zhantie sword hung on the wall, Tang En showed a very satisfied expression.

"Huh? Your lord?"

At this time, Fiona came back: "I was looking for you, but you are actually in the study... sword?"

Fiona also saw the sword hanging on the wall, and was taken aback for a moment.

Tang En said with a smile: "Isn't it pretty? It's right here."

"It looks good... no, let's talk about business!"

Fiona came to her senses: "Hilton and Thomas can't wait for the workshop to be completed, they plan to organize a caravan and set off."

"Let's go now? Where is the goal?"

"Go east, the mountain city of Bein."

Fiona paused, and said: "Fort Caspermi has just been patronized by you, Lord Lord, and their Lord was killed by you, so it should be in a sensitive period right now, and it is not suitable to open shops now. On the other hand, the distance between the mountain city of Bein and Ellington is closer than that of Fort Caspermi, and the carriage only takes two days. Moreover, it is closer to the imperial capital than Ellington, and it is also more prosperous. It is a good place. choose."

"The most important thing is, Lord Lord, you have dealt with Buck's gang of bandits, so the traffic between Ellington and the outside world has improved a lot, and there will be no bandits in the imperial capital, and there is almost no harassment from monsters. , very safe."

"Bein... that's fine too, but what about the goods chosen by the caravan?"

"The peppermints and soaps that have been rushed out in the past few days are enough, plus the metal farm tools produced by the apprentices in the blacksmith shop using machines, the total value of goods is more than a thousand gold coins, and transporting them to Bein should bring us A profit of at least two thousand gold coins."

After a pause, Fiona continued: "They will bring a thousand gold coins over there at the same time, and use the money to buy a shop over there as a fixed station for our chamber of commerce. Prepare to open the market in the future, it can be said that their success in the mountain city of Bein will determine the speed of our future development in Ellington."

Tang En waved his hand: "Since their operation is so important this time, give them 10,000 gold coins as an activity fund, and at the same time send 20 members of the guards to protect them and build up momentum for them."

Fiona was taken aback: "My lord! Are you crazy!? You don't need so much at all!"

"I know."

Tang En said casually: "But you also know what those nobles look like. How could it be possible to get into their circle with just a thousand gold coins? At least five thousand gold coins can make them look decent. Big merchants, with another five thousand gold coins, can barely qualify them to enter the circle of nobles."

Fiona was silent for a moment. She knew what Tang En said was true. She originally wanted to rely on Hilton and Thomas' abilities to save the money, but now that she has the support of the lord, there is no need to save.

"Okay, I see, your generosity will definitely make their actions go more smoothly."

Fiona made a note of the incident.

Tang En continued: "Since they are going to open a shop, they must have good things that can hold the place. Although mints and soap are practical things, they are still used to attract the attention of those nobles. It's a bit short."

Fiona's eyes lit up: "Could it be that you want to give me a magic scroll?"

"are you kidding me?"

Tang En looked at Fiona with disdain: "A shop that sells daily necessities sells magic scrolls?"

To use an analogy, this is like a bazooka next to the soap on the shelf of a grocery store on earth...

Fiona laughed dryly, and she also knew that she was too impatient.

"There is no magic scroll, but..."

Tang En rubbed his chin, clapped his hands suddenly, took out a few bottles of wine and handed them to Fiona: "That's it."

"this is--"

Fiona immediately recognized these bottles of wine, and exclaimed: "New moon wine! New moon wine from the elves!? Oh my god! Besides the bottle from last time, you still have so much!? Could it be? Do you know any elves!?"

Tang En shrugged: "I really want to get to know... Stop talking nonsense, give these bottles of wine to them, but don't let them be stupid, do you know how to maximize the value?"

Fiona tentatively said, "Take it for appraisal first? Then sell it?"

Tang En covered his face in pain, took a deep breath, and said patiently: "There is a bottle of these wines in the store, but this is a sign! It's also called a gimmick! You can't sell it casually, and take out another bottle The bottle participates in the auction in the name of the chamber of commerce, which will increase the reputation of the chamber of commerce, and at the same time let them know that we can get the things of the elves! Then the third bottle, after the auction is over, directly invite those who have the right to have Let the powerful nobles go to the party, let everyone share this bottle of wine, understand?"

Tang En just dialed it a little bit, and Fiona immediately understood the truth, and her admiration for Tang En was beyond words!
