<h4>Chapter 139: Greed</h4>
Manor, meditation room.
Walking into the meditation room, Heath took out beast blood, Magic Stones, and drew a small magic array on the ground. He pressed his palms against the magic array and activated it.
When the magic array was activated, densely packed tadpole-shaped runes spread out in all directions. In an instant, they covered the walls, roof, and floor. The runes and runes connected to each other to form lines that covered the entire room.
Between the lines, an invisible barrier appeared, isting the room from the outside.
This was a small barrier protection magic array. It could effectively defend against all attacks below the rank of a Wizard. It could block video and audio without being disturbed. It couldst for several days.
Advancing to the rank of a Wizard was a very crucial matter. Some necessary preparations were naturally necessary.
After sealing the barrier, Heath came to the center of the room and sat down, officially beginning his advancement towards bing a Wizard.
But there was a small problem here: an official-level spell.
He already had an official-level spell here, which was a Half-Life Soul. But when he made this choice, Heath was a little hesitant.
This was because the official-level spell that the Apprentice chose to use to advance to be a Wizard would solidify into a Wizard’s innate spell afterpleting the advancement. There was no need for spells, no need to chant, and in the future, it would be like an instinct to cast it.
Using the Half-Life Soul to solidify it was a waste of the quota for this innate spell.
Then, was there any other choice?
The answer was yes.
After many years of umtion, Heath’s knowledge was extraordinarily rich. Other Apprentices needed to borrow other people’s spell temtes because their knowledge was not good and their own level was not good. But he did not have that. With his current level of knowledge, it was not impossible to mix and construct aplete spell system that belonged to him.
Since he had the ability to create it himself, why did he need to use other people’s systems?
He did as he thought.
After thinking for a while, Heath quickly established the general shape of the spell he was going to construct.
This was the inspiration he got from the Red Phosphorus Flower he picked up at the city gate. At the same time, hebined it with a new spell formed from a manga he liked when he was a student on Blue Star…
After confirming the specific idea, Heath then began topile the detailed runic structure of this spell in detail.
This process was not too difficult for him. After all, it was just a matter of time. With sufficient knowledge, he could easily pick up anything. It was like making a test paper, and all the contents of the test paper were the answers that he knew.
Soon, hepleted the design of the spell model.
Looking at the densely packed runic structure, Heath felt a sense of aplishment.
Although he always knew that he was very powerful, his actual ability was still far beyond his expectations. An official-level spell worth hundreds of thousands of dors was actuallypleted in a minute.
Now, as long as he advanced to a Wizard, he could activate it. At the same time, this spell temte would be automatically branded into Heath’s soul and be his innate spell.
‘Haha, if I make a spell and sell it, wouldn’t I make a lot of money?’
Of course, he could only fantasize about this idea in his mind.
Not to mention that it was so easy for him toplete this spell, it was mainly because it was a spell created with his own conditions. It was only suitable for himself and not a universal spell. Even if others bought it, they would not be able to learn it.
Secondly, and most importantly, official-level spells were not easily traded.
The main reason why spells were expensive was to maintain aprehensive social system that made it expensive and made everyone ept it as expensive.
This was a little awkward andplicated. To give a simple example, the Blue Starputer chip was expensive mainly because it had created a system that only it could produce and maintain.
If this high-end knowledge was taken out and casually traded for poprization, what would all the Wizards think?
In short, the way to earn money by selling spells was not feasible at the moment.
The spell preparation waspleted, and the blood fountain had long been fully mastered. The next step was to make a dash for the official Wizard level.
Heath took out the Wizard’s Water.
Looking through the transparent potion bottle, it was dark blue liquid. The flowing liquid was mixed with mottled silver light spots. It was densely packed as if it contained a vast gxy of stars.
“What should I do after I advance to a Wizard? Should I go back to the Aike Continent?”
Hoping in his heart, Heath raised his head and gulped down this gxy…
In one gulp!
…
At the same time, in the pce of Caleru City.
On the ice-cold hall, two braziers were burning. The dancing mes lit up the scene in the hall.
Duke Dn, The Regent, who was dressed in chain mail, sat on the spacious throne. A few young girls gathered around him. They rubbed his shoulders and massaged his legs.
As he enjoyed the girls’ massages, he looked down at the hall.
In the hall, a bald man was prostrating. He was the ve trader who had sold Heath a group of ves.
There was an open cloth bag on the ground in front of him. A bag of gold coins was scattered from it. Under the flickering light of the fire, the gold coins sparkled. It was particrly eye-catching.
Duke Dn asked with interest, “500 gold coins, and he just gave it to you like that?”
The bald man answered in full detail, “Yes, Your Highness, from the beginning to the end, he didn’t even make a single offer.”
The nobles on both sides of the hall began to whisper among themselves.
“Where did this golden deere from? Even the Drotts who grew up on the Golden Mountain wouldn’t be so generous.”
“500 gold coins to buy 30 female ves? Did he steal from a Wizard’s gold pocket?”
Duke Dn’s gaze fell to the side of the bald man.
There were also a few people kneeling on the ground. They were the guards that Heath had beaten when he entered the city, the two coachmen who drove Heath to the manor, and so on.
Duke Dn asked, “You said that he defeated you all with his bare hands?”
“Yes… Yes, Your Highness. That was a Knight. We couldn’t stop him at all…”
“He was like a bear with infinite strength. We went up and tried to hug him, but he just swung his arm and sent us flying.”
“He was too powerful. I swear, that was the most powerful Knight I’ve ever seen…”
In order to shirk responsibility, the soldiers exaggerated the events in front of the city gate. In their description, Heath had undoubtedly be a terrifying existence who could fly and burrow into the earth.
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, a Knight hurriedly stood up.
The Knight volunteered, “Your Highness, I’ll chop off that kid’s head and bring it to you.”
This made another Knight unwilling to show weakness. “I don’t believe that anyone can block my sword!”
“I want to see such an expert too.”
“Let me go…”
The Knights knew very well what kind of people the city guards were. It was possible that the kid who broke into the city gate had some ability, but if he was really as described by the city guards, there was no Knight present who could be trusted.
Duke Dn raised a hand. “Alright!”
Recently, his Knights had be more and more dishonest. It was better for him to dig out such a treasure trove that could easily take out 500 gold coins.
He opened the pocket of his coat and patted the cross sword hanging on his waist.
“My loyal Knights, let’s go and see who this is.”
…
On the other side, at the ve market in Caleru City.
Beside the jumping bonfire, several ve markets gathered together and discussed the most explosive topic of the day.
“I was next door and saw it with my own eyes. It was real gold…”
“That kid didn’t care at all. It was as if it wasn’t 500 gold coins, but only 500 stones…”
“I’ve never seen so much money…”
Some ve traders were still talking about this strange matter from before, but the ve traders who were quick-witted had already started to have evil thoughts.
The two ve traders rolled their eyes and quietly left the banquet.
The two of them met at the stables.
One of the ve traders said, “I know a group of wandering Knights from Lalor City. As long as they can afford money and women, they would dare to do even the task of killing their way into the pce!”
The ve trader chuckled. “What a coincidence. There are women everywhere. As for gold coins, they will have them!”
…
At the same time, in the refugee camp.
“Hey, hey, hey, did you hear? A golden goose that cany eggs came to the city and bought 30 ves with 500 gold coins. Oh my god!”
“How can there be someone in this world who has so much money!”
At this moment, a refugee suddenly said, “I heard that he’s only one person…”
Another refugee said, “You mean…”
The refugee gritted his teeth and showed a fierce expression. “If we stay here, we will starve to death sooner orter. It’s not fair for him to have so many gold coins alone. We should give them to everyone and let us buy food for the merchants!”
“That’s right, we need gold coins!”
“We need to buy food!”
…
Simr scenes quickly spread throughout the city. The pce, the marketce, the ve market, and the refugee camp.
500 gold coins were nothing to Heath, but to ordinary humans, it was a huge amount of wealth that even the king would be moved by.
When Heath used 500 gold coins to buy the group of female ves, it was destined that this would definitely cause a huge uproar in this rotten city.
This was the development of the matter.
‘A golden goose that cany eggs came to the city and spent 500 gold coins to buy 30 women without even batting an eye!’
This explosive news instantly shocked the entire city.
In an instant, the entire city was revived because of this piece of news. Everyone from the Duke, Knights, ve traders, refugees, and even the wandering Knights in the city, as well as the bandits wandering outside the city, all began toe to life.
Everyone rushed out of their nests and rushed to the manor outside the city at the fastest speed.
Those who were capable would fight for the gold coins, but those who were not could only imagine that they would be lucky enough to get a bargain.
For the gold coins, for the golden goose.
Everyone rushed to the manor outside the city.
They fought to be the first…
