Lord of Spells from Faerûn

"It's really expensive."

This is the first time Imrik has stepped into the library of Inkanistayum. The prices here can only be said to be insane. The price of a one-level spell is 30 gold coins, while the same spell scroll only costs 10 gold coins outside!

The second-level spell is even more outrageous. It sells for 60 gold coins outside but is as high as 180 gold coins here!

Of course, the only comforting thing is that the prices of all spells of the same level are the same, which can be considered a blessing among misfortunes.

Imric looked at a sheepskin spell book kept in a transparent glass treasure box. It was full of ancient traces. There was a sign under the glass treasure box: Seventh Ring Spell - Teleportation from Another World.

This is the only book in the entire library that records seven-ring spells, and the price of copying it is also terrifyingly expensive, as high as 36,500 gold coins!

Imrik couldn't help but sigh. The value of high-level spells is beyond imagination. No wonder those senior mages have blocked the leakage of high-level spell scrolls. The spells I spent so much money to copy will cost you thousands. Can gold coins be bought to copy? Do not make jokes.

As for the six-ring spells, they are much cheaper. The uniform price of the six-ring spells in the library is 8,400 gold coins. Compared with the five-digit seven-ring spells, this price is relatively affordable.

Imrik left 50,000 gold coins for emergencies. The remaining money was used to select spells. For some high-level spells that could not be copied, he paid an extra 100 gold coins for each spell and asked the library administrator to let him To handle the copying business that only the tower owner has the authority to handle, Ratholin would copy the spell models in the spell book into a new blank parchment book and sell the old book directly to himself.

In the end, Imrik did some counting and purchased a total of spells worth more than 26,800 gold coins. He spent most of his savings in one go, leaving only a deposit of nearly 50,000 gold coins.

They are: first-level spells—arcane sensitivity, resistance to seasickness, and activated rope.

Second-level spells—Arcane Lock, Dispel Smoke, Gift Generously, Dye Pool, Disguise Undead, Blind/Deafness, Death Armor, Pyrotechnics, Locate Object.

Three-level spells—Phantom Pony, Wall of Thorns, Star of Arvando, and Advanced Phantom.

Four-level spells - Fire Shield, Fire Wall, Greater Invisibility, Fear, Stone Shaping, Otiluk's Exorcism Barrier, Blood Thorn, Heaven's Light, Ebony Ray of Destruction.

Five-ring spells—Mordenkainen's Chamber, fifth-level summoning of monsters, cone of ice, turn mud into stone, fossils into mud, magic constancy, lesser dragon alliance, mage lord power armor, otherworldly scrying, large Flame Explosion, Ribbon Technique, Nightmare, Ring of Weakness, Vampire's Kiss, Magic Pot Soul, Intercontinental Flight.

Sixth-level spells - anti-magic force field, anti-biological force field, advanced dispel magic, iron wall, sixth-level monster summoning, Otiluk's frozen sphere, chain lightning, collective suggestion, legend mastery, Bigby Flying High five, death circle, summon undead, immortal death, petrification.

He did not buy the seventh-ring spell [Transportation from Another World]. First, it was still far away from the Seventh-ring Magic Network, so he was not in a hurry. Secondly, the effect of [Twilight Star] was comparable to the weakened version of [Transportation from Another World], which was enough for the time being. used.

Imrik looked at the large number of remaining spells in the library and sighed. No wonder the wizard is a bottomless pit. If you want to copy high-level spells, the cost is really not something that ordinary people can afford.

This actually reflects the distorted market in Faerûn. As a disposable item, the price of high-level spell scrolls is much higher than that of spell storage equipment of the same level. The reason is because they are afraid that other mages will steal it at a low price. Master magic.

And this phenomenon becomes more and more obvious the higher you go up. For example, the legendary and precious wish-making spell, if according to the rules in this library, the price may be enough to reach 180,000 gold coins. Of course, this is only the minimum consideration. Every nine-ring spell is extremely valuable. It is a rare existence, not to mention the most powerful wish-making spell among the nine-ring spells. The price must be at least doubled to be able to learn it.

But opposite it is the legendary magic ring, [Three Wishes Ring].

Imrik once learned about this ring from the official store in Waterdeep City. Its effect is that it can release the [Wish Spell] three times, and it will self-destruct after consuming all the energy.

The price of such a ring is only 190,000 gold coins. Although it can be cast more times than the wishing scroll, its value is far less.

Imrik copied all the spells and put them away, then returned to [Twilight Star] to prepare for traveling to another world. He did not bring the copper furnace with him because the place he planned to go this time needed to be safe and human. There are many worlds where it is not suitable to bring a copper stove.

"Take me to a safe world that can improve me, or help me research spells that can increase my life level."

Before activating [Before Plane Travel], Imrik set up the prerequisites as detailed as possible in his heart, and with a fully replenished spell book, his figure disappeared into a blue halo.

——

Earth, London, first half of the eighteenth century.

Imric's figure walked out of the blue halo that opened in an alley.

"vomit"

Imric retched, and a feeling of dizziness hit his heart. He didn't feel this way when he tested [Plane Travel] last time. Could it be because of the distance?

Wearing a gorgeous mage robe with a strong Faerun artistic style, he thought to himself, but everything around him quickly attracted his attention.

The surrounding buildings are all low-rise houses made of stones, which are generally similar to the houses in the city of Faerûn. The streets outside the alleys can be heard from the extremely noisy traffic, and from time to time, a large number of pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages pass by. .

Imrik walked out of the alley and found that the streets were crowded with a large number of people. Such a dense number was extremely rare in the world of Faerûn. Even in bustling cities, most of the pedestrians coming and going were wearing similar simple clothing. Clothing and trousers, the men all had black char marks on their faces and wore hats with two corners turned up on their heads, while the women all carried small baskets and wore flat hats made of soft material on their heads. .

"This is Earth?"

Imrik was quite excited. He recognized that most of the clothes worn by pedestrians on the road belonged to Western countries in the eighteenth century on Earth. The hat with the legs turned up was a two-legged hat, and the flat hat was a wide-brimmed hat. Bonnet hats, these were hats and clothing customarily worn by British men and women in the 18th century.

Imrik listened carefully to the words of passers-by. Although with the help of [Language Comprehension], he could understand all languages, it was clear that the words spoken by these people were not the common language spread throughout the multiverse planes. But the English of the previous life on Earth! Even though the English accent is a bit convoluted and difficult to understand, it is still English!

Damn it, I forgot to title these two chapters.
