Lord of Arcane

Chapter 176 "Spell Detection Report"

As soon as the door outside the elevator was opened, all kinds of roaring, roaring, howling, knocking, cursing, begging for mercy, and threats from various creatures flooded into the elevator.

Xia Duo frowned subconsciously, the management was too irregular, but before he could speak, Master Jose introduced him:
"The entire underground floor is equipped with a binding circle. As long as there is no specific authority, any creature entering here will be bound."

When Xia Duo heard this, he was startled. Fortunately, he already had the relevant authority, otherwise he would have been trying to die if he followed Master Jose to come here!
And Jose continued: "Most of the creatures here are orcs, with rough skin and thick flesh, which are very suitable for testing various spells, and there are relatively few other creatures, especially humans, which are basically only used when testing mental spells." arrive."

He didn't shy away from talking about the existence of human experiments because he was also a human being, which also made Xia Duo have a deeper understanding of the order of this world.

"Where is our testing place?" Xia Duo asked.

"Over there." Master Jose pointed to the left direction, "Go and apply for a bondage room first, let's use orcs to test this time."

Similar to the public floor, this is also a circular corridor with independent rooms on the left and right. The only difference is that most of these rooms have no doors, or only simple metal prison doors.

If it wasn't in the mage tower, it wouldn't be able to restrain any rational creature at all.

……

Test room.

Xia Duo looked at the orc crouching in there dazedly, and felt a little emotional. Now it is true that "I am the knife and the other is the fish", but he may become a "fish" himself at some point.

Seeing the arrival of Xia Duo and Mage Jose, the orc did not act aggressively, but hung on the ground for a while, as if he wanted to destroy the mage tower.

But its efforts were clearly in vain.

Xia Duo, who was in a state of concentration, could clearly see that from the moment he entered the basement floor, it was filled with bright magic aura, and there were twisted nodes of the magic net everywhere.

And in the half of the room where the orc was, the magic net was densely intertwined with the orc as the center, and there was a ring-shaped area under the feet that was dazzlingly bright.

Xia Duo didn't know the specific effects of these magics, but with such a loud momentum, the orc ran away, and the tower was built in vain at that time.

"Its will to fight has been completely wiped out." Mage Jose said, at first Xia Duo thought he was sighing for the orc.

But immediately following the next sentence, "Such orcs can be applied for with only a small amount of gold coins."

Xia Duo was a little speechless, and urged, "Start the test!"

"it is good."

……

The testing process is not complicated, just to activate the scroll and guide the release. The Mage Tower has long had mature experience, and roughly has several indicators such as "ease of use", "mode of action", and "safety".

This test is relatively simple, after all, it is only a level 1 spell.

After Mage Jose activated the scroll, a white steam ball the size of a human eyeball appeared above the scroll, followed by—

With a sound of "chi", a finger-thick translucent white column of air shot out from the steam mass and hit the back of the orc directly.

"Roar--"

The intense pain made the orc roar, and the squatting body that was leaning forward suddenly straightened up, kneeling on the ground, and then there was no follow-up action.

But the spell that Magister José had inspired continued, and the seasoned mage directed the column of steam across a large area of ​​the orc's back.

Where the air column passed, the orc's exposed skin became white and wrinkled, as if it had been cooked, and emitted a foul smell.

Master Jose didn't change his face, and continued to control the air column to sweep across the orc's neck. After the orc wailed, he could no longer scream, leaving only the sound of panting.

But the body still didn't move.

Soon the spell ended, and Master Jose praised, "It's a good effect! But it's inconvenient to guide, and it's not suitable for beginners."

Xia Duo was silent, he had expected this result, but it was still a little hard to accept when he actually heard it.

Then, Master Jose inspired the remaining two scrolls, and finally gave a conclusion——

"This spell is indeed quite novel, and the effect is good, but the flaw is also obvious, that is, the difficulty of guiding the spell is a bit high, and it is not suitable for novices. The price I can give is 22 gold coins a piece."

"alright."

There is nothing Xia Duo can do if he refuses to accept it. Even if he sells it outside, he still has to go through the test and set the price. The only difference is that the other party will also pay for the scroll tested outside.

But the Mage Tower test itself is a kind of endorsement, a kind of qualification, and it can be used outside, Xia Duo is still willing to pay for it.

After the test was over, the two left the test room together. As for the half-familiar orc, who would care?

……

Back at the materials application office, Xia Duo paid the test fee and got a "Spell Test Report" issued in the name of the Mage Tower.

With this, his [Steam Ray] scroll can be officially launched.

It's a pity that the three scrolls that he made all night before have been consumed in the test, and he doesn't sell the two learning scrolls, so after a few pleasantries with Master Jose, he said goodbye and left.

After this trip, Xia Duo was quite rewarding. He not only saw the new environment of the Mage Tower, but also got a spell test report, which is convenient for the next sale of scrolls.

In addition, Xia Duo also got a piece of news from Master Jose that is not secret, but it is useful to know in advance——

Because the territory is about to open up the Green Bead Forest, the price of some 1-ring magic scrolls began to rise. Of course, this is not the point.

The point is that as long as the members of the mage tower choose the material claim place when selling the magic scroll, they can get additional rewards, including but not limited to Xia Duo's previous promotion task indicators.

In other words, as long as Xia Duo sells the designated scroll to the mage tower, the unfinished promotion task can be avoided.

If it is not just in time for a good time, usually such a good thing will not come across, which can not only make money, but also get extra rewards.

But here comes the problem, Xia Duo can only make one-ring [Steam Ray] scrolls now, and he doesn't know any of the designated scrolls required by the so-called mage tower.

This drove him a little crazy.

If he had known this, he would have learned other spells first.

Since [Mage Armor] was not in the list of designated scrolls, Xia Duo went straight to the library after leaving the material claim area. What he was looking for were [Magic Alarm] and [Magic Weapon].

These two first-level spells are spells in the list of designated scrolls, and they are also the second spells that must be learned in Xia Duo's plan, but they are ranked behind [Mage Armor].

Now a little adjustment of the order will not have much impact. The missing elements of [Mage Armor] are already under research, and the only impact is probably his wallet. Borrowing so many books here at the same time will not give any discounts. explain.
