I think you can't even imagine the happiness of a warlock.

Chen Zhou thought that the so-called "exile" was just an excuse for Dara to join the Eight Kings' caravan to fish and steal the steam engine.

A level 3 priest is considered a small high-level person in a temple - the most powerful priest on the main material plane is only around level 6 - how would a dwarf who believes in the Soul Forger exile his servants?

"No, I was really exiled by the Firecast Clan."

Without saying much, as if he wanted to forget everything in the past, the dwarf drank the "water of life" flowing with Aurora in a sip of wine.

Then he frowned and looked at the remaining wine in the bottle: "Has your fire wine been watered down?"

"Mixing it with water is how normal people drink it!" Chen Zhou innocently spread his hands, "And this is something left by the previous tavern owner."

The dwarf cursed at this. He would rather drink authentic distilled wine than this elven stuff.

Drunkenness also triggered Dara's talkative mode.

According to Dara, his original name was not that, but Darak Fireforged.

The dwarf's name does not belong to them. It usually consists of the name passed down from generation to generation by the clan + the clan name. Once they bring shame on their name, the name will be taken away by the clan.

The exiled dwarf prince naturally has no right to use the dwarf's name, so he removed the end of it and turned it into a name that is neither superior nor inferior.

Chen Zhou actually didn't quite understand what a name meant for a dwarf.

All in all, it was just a coincidence that Dara met the caravan of the adopted son of the Firecast Clan outside. Now that the Obsidian needs major repairs and the Eight Kings' caravan returns to the Dwarf Kingdom by land, he can no longer follow it.

Humans returned to the dwarf kingdom, but the dwarves wandered outside...

Dara, who had nothing to do, went to the Old Cat Tavern alone after having a big meal with the caravan last night to drink some strong drinks. As a result, she happened to meet Chen Zhou again.

"Are you going to continue to open this Old Cat Tavern in the future?" Darla looked in disbelief. The orc in front of him was too "honest" compared to his kind.

After all, two months ago, he was just a college student who was about to graduate and start an internship.

"I don't want to open a tavern. I like peace and quiet, so I plan to turn the first floor into a shop to sell some processed things."

As he spoke, Chen Zhou stretched out his hand to the dwarf.

Just when the latter was wondering what the other party meant.

I saw a sparkling translucent ice sculpture growing out of the opponent's hand.

After practice, the water-making technique with added cold elements can also be used to create ice sculptures according to imagination.

Looking at the handsome and beautiful four-legged creature with ribbons fluttering on the opponent's palm, even a dwarf who is good at crafts couldn't help but praise: "It's well made. Is this a wolf?"

"It's a water dog. It can be caught in a net and barks."

Darla had never heard of any magical beast like it.

It looks pretty good and should be sold.

But whether it is the so-called Aurora Ice and Fire Wine or the Water Dog Ice Sculpture, they are all created through 0-ring magic.

While production is extremely limited, duration is also problematic.

A caster's increased spellcasting level does not make their magic stronger, but rather gives them the skills to strengthen their spells at the cost of more magic.

In other words, without consuming additional magic power or using special skills, there will be no difference between the light spell and the water creation spell performed by a level 2 sorcerer and a level 1 sorcerer.

The former lasts for 10 minutes, and the latter melts at the same speed as ordinary ice.

The biggest flaw in Chen Zhou's idea is here - his goods are only special for the duration of the spell.

After buying it, before I could walk home, the spell termination effect ended, and it turned back into ordinary wine and a puddle of water!

"That's not necessarily true." Chen Zhou smiled, "When I cast the spell, I used casting materials that can extend the duration."

Dara was thoughtful when he heard the words. He didn't seem to see what materials the other party was holding in his hand at that time?

"what material?"

"do not know."

"What effect?"

"Extended duration."

"Where is it? Let me see?"

"We warlocks cast spells without materials, but I was able to avoid them."

"???"

This silenced the dwarf priest who also had the ability to cast spells.

It took Dara a minute to understand what the other party said:

1. Tom made up a "unfounded" powerful spellcasting material.

2. The duration of the spell is extended by the casting materials.

3. But the casting materials are exempted by Tom's casting materials.

"No, can the sorcerer's casting materials be used like this!?"

At least Darla had never heard of it being used.

Probably not, Chen Zhou thought, but the mythical version of casting materials can also exempt materials with a certain value, and the specific degree depends on the class.

His level is 1. According to the introduction in the planning book, he can exempt materials worth less than 10 gold coins. If the power of myth is consumed, this limit will be increased to 100 gold coins.

But Chen Zhou doesn't have any mythical power.

And to be honest, he didn't really understand why gold coins were used to measure spell-casting materials. Who determined the value of spell-casting materials?

So Chen Zhou tried to define a virtual material worth 10 gold coins and used it in his spell.

But despite how confident he sounds, he has actually never tried it to see if it actually works.

Fortunately, the light spell, which does not consume additional magic power, lasts only about 10 minutes, so it won't take long to verify his hypothesis.

ten minutes later……

The aurora in the wine bottle gradually disappeared.

"Ha! I knew you were talking nonsense!" Darla got the same result as expected.

Chen Zhou did not feel discouraged at all.

Since 11's intelligence is about the same as that of a mentally retarded person, it's normal for him to fail now, as long as he succeeds in the end.

If defining a virtual casting material doesn't work, do you still have to hold the material in hand to avoid it?

"Dara, do you have any cheap special spellcasting materials?" He turned to look at the dwarf.

The dwarf suddenly became alert, because he was really a bit...

Thanks to the warlock's inherent goodwill, Dara finally agreed to show the other party the spell-casting materials he had obtained from his fellow tribesmen in the North a few days ago.

The magic power contained in ice gems can be strengthened to a certain extent when casting cold magic.

Chen Zhou took it and glanced at it before returning it directly.

The value of spellcasting materials refers to the total value of the material itself and the energy structure. The significance of the material is as a medium for the existence of energy, and the energy structure is the truly valuable part of spellcasting.

The more complex, special, extreme, easy to dissipate, and difficult to replace the energy structure, the higher the value.

Therefore, the gold coin limit in spell material exemption actually measures the "irreplaceability" of the material for the caster.

As for Dara, the ice gem...

Chen Zhou thought that the elements provided by his own bloodline could completely replace the energy.

In other words, to him, the energy structure in this gem is worth 0 gold coins.

This can be waived!

Just when Chen Zhou was in high spirits, the dwarf came out with heart-wrenching words: "Is there any difference? Isn't it true that the duration of your light spell and ice creation spell is not long enough to be used as a commodity?"

"Indeed... I still have to find other ways to make money."

The job-changing profiteer failed miserably!
