Archmage Daily Research Report

Speaking of pets, I've always hoped to be ravens, and preferably a group, because I think the way they fly around the mage's tower is very charming, the dark feathers are dyed golden red by the setting sun, and the mage sends a message from the tower, his The ravens are his messengers, they can fly over mountains and rivers for him...

Well, but this wish seems unrealistic in modern society. First of all, letting ravens fly around is easy to hit the aircraft. Moreover, I couldn't afford land to build a mage tower in the past!

But now, I don’t know if it’s okay to raise one?

But just letting it fly in the tower seems to be very unfree. It feels like only letting me read one book in my life, then I will go crazy.

"Mel, what do you want?" I decided to ask Mel's opinion.

"Hmm... To be honest, I don't know." Mel frowned, taking out sunglasses from his pocket as he spoke, putting them on skillfully, covering most of his face, he said, "I've always liked black cats with green eyes, but Anna always said it was too vulgar, because since ancient times, when it comes to mages, the standard equipment is cats, which is not new, so she keeps arguing that I don’t want cats, and I’m worried that if I raise a cat, Anna will poison the poor cat.”

I was a little terrified: "The tutor's cat dares to move, your apprentice needs to be disciplined too much."

"Exactly!" said Mel grimly. "I'm aware of that too."

There are not only normal pet shops in the city-by normal I mean natural creatures, but also mechanical pet and magical creature shops.Mechanical pets have always been something I can't understand. Is it any different from sweeping robots, dishwasher robots or even toilet cleaning robots?Jasmine said that the difference is that it needs to be treated as a pet... I don't think this makes sense at all, they are all robots, why are they called "pet robots" when they leave the factory, and they can suck power for nothing in the owner's house and not work?The point is, the mechanical pet has no hair yet, and it’s not cute either. I really didn't know the difference between his pet robot and the toilet cleaning robot in his toilet, and the joint that didn't clean the toilet was flexible.

Then it took two hours to sum up the question in the same way as Jasmine, who popularized this question with me: "Teacher, you are really a time traveler from the legendary age."

Speaking of it, although I don't like it, mechanical pets are not difficult to understand. After all, there are many fanatical technology enthusiasts, regardless of age and gender, but when it comes to magical creatures, I really can't understand them. I think magical creatures should be specially distinguished from natural creatures, because magical creatures are also part of nature, why should they be specially marked?

Hearing my question, the owner of the magic pet shop answered me: "Ah, as the name suggests, magic creatures have more or less magic power, so they are wild and dangerous, so the breeding conditions are higher~"

Danger?If it's dangerous monsters like the giant horned cow or the shadow wolf, then I admit that they are indeed not as safe as rabbits, but...

Frowning together, Mel and I looked at the slime in the cage, which was a little shiny because it was too clean, and fell into bewilderment.

——Is there no creature in this world that is safer and more harmless than slime?As a natural creature, mosquitoes can bite people and bleed. How dangerous is slime?Could it be that you didn't notice it when you went to the bathroom in the middle of the night, stepped on it, slipped and broke your neck?Or who's three-year-old will mistake it for jelly and choke to death?

God, there is a garden leprechaun here, that thing is like a jumping potato, not to mention ugly, dirty, and likes to make noise, I used to kill all the leprechauns hiding in the flower beds downstairs in my apartment After disposing of it, will someone actually buy pests and raise them at home?

We looked around this magical pet shop, and the only thing that attracted us was the slime, which looked in good condition.

"How much is this?" Mel and I asked together.

The clerk's eyes lit up, and he said triumphantly: "Ah, this is the slime with the best appearance in our store, please look at how crystal clear its flesh is, it looks soft and smooth, and its color is rare Orange, when there is sunlight, it will look like gold, which means..."

"No trouble," Mel interrupted, "Just tell us how much it is."

"It only costs [-] federal coins! But considering its appearance, it is very cost-effective and—"

"Fifteen thousand?" I couldn't control it, and exclaimed impolitely.

Mel also stared: "Isn't it too expensive?"

Yes, even if Mel is very rich, it doesn't mean he can spend money to play, that's stupid!

"This is tens of thousands of times more expensive than the finished slime!" I said, "Even if it is indeed better in color, it has not been processed! For [-] gold coins, I can buy a ton of extremely pure slime Fresh slime is squeezed from fresh slime on the spot!"

The clerk also looked terrified, taking a step back, spreading his hands like old hens to protect the slime's case, and yelling, "What? You're trying to juice this cute creature? Oh my god, are you perverts? Get out, get out! I don't welcome perverts who abuse pets in my store, if you don't leave, I will call the police!"

what?

Mel and I were kicked out of the door in a daze. The clerk was still screaming behind us at high decibels, and made the clerks and customers in the surrounding stores point and point at us.Mel and I resisted the urge to throw him a silence spell, but we still thought, is his brain full of slime?An unprocessed magic material actually sells for [-] yuan, why buy it back, enjoy the fun of burning money?

The rich people in the capital are really puzzling.

Mel even frowned, looking at other pet shops on the street, his eyes began to become hesitant, he thought for a while, and said to me: "Why don't we go directly to the shop I know, Anna told me That store is very famous, it should be much better than this black-hearted store."

……

Moments later, Mel and I came out of the store with a bunch of stuff in our hands, contented.It's just that this is obviously a fresh magic raw material store, how could it be regarded as a well-known pet store?

Their black widow spiders are big and cheap, and judging from the pattern on the back, they must be very poisonous, very suitable for making strong potions, and a few large spiders have thick legs and very good hair. The legs can be disassembled before crushing, and the fluff on the legs can be collected and used alone, which is quite cost-effective; the black-scaled toads produced in the western plains are also very fat, and should be able to squeeze out a lot of juice, and there is also a large bucket of Balog Highland caterpillar eggs. It is moist and viscous, and it is alive. Just squeeze it when you go back. It is easier to extract oil from live eggs than dead ones. Combined with fresh sheep eyeballs, it is the best blending reagent, which can be used to prepare antidote!

Even better, there are slugs!Mel and I bought all the stock in their store on the spot!That thing is only useful for tentacles, but the tentacles are not sold at a high price-because they are not expensive materials, there are almost no merchants willing to raise them, and this store has a big box of slugs!

Mel and I are very happy, this is really a perfect shopping, although we have the ability to go to the wild to find it, but it is so troublesome, especially living in modern society, the ancient mages have a lot of apprentices who can be thrown out to work , but I don't want to throw Jasmine into the deep mountains and old forests, because the result of doing so will inevitably be that I personally rescue her.To be honest, I admit that I also have a bit of bad habits. If I can buy it, it is more comfortable than running errands by myself. For example, it is more convenient to ask Jasmine to order food for me than to buy it myself.

It's a pity that the store doesn't have the horns of the giant horned bull.If you think about it, the giant-horned demon cows that grow in the north may not be able to adapt to the climate here, which will lead to a decrease in the hardness of the magic horns.

There is no way for living things to be stored in the magic space, because we buy fresh materials, so we have to hold them with both hands, but this is very troublesome, we still want to go to the movies, and our pets have not been selected yet.

"Wow, you guys are running so fast!"

A soft but mocking voice sounded, and we saw the priest of light, Lorraine, come out of a cold drink shop generously, holding the largest Big Mac cone in his hand, and was happily licking it.

I nodded to him and said hello: "Your Excellency Priest Lorraine."

He waved his hands with a smile, shaking his pointed elf ears, and said, "Shh, the Capitol is frantically looking for 'the heroic archmage who turned the tide and smashed the extremist conspiracy alone', and you two are dating here. I thought My running speed is already top-notch, and you all bought so many things in the end!"

Mel may have only heard the first half of the sentence, he nodded and said, "Yes, Sipe is really amazing!"

I have given up struggling completely. I can't stop Mel from complimenting me regardless of the occasion and time, just like I couldn't stop Jasmine from wearing scary devil makeup.

At most, I should refrain from turning my head and exchanging compliments with him. I think it is still not dignified to do so in public, and it is not enough for a mage.

Lorraine clicked his tongue twice, and then said to me: "The beautiful crow, Miss Angela, asked me to tell you that she went out to investigate, and it is estimated that she will come back next month, and then we will go with her and find out if she stepped on the plate. The bastards are going to have a meal."

"Well, okay." I nodded, but I always felt that Priest Lorraine's words were weird. Do all elves use words and sentences like this?I've heard that they are very elegant and civilized, and the most serious swear words are "disrespectful" and "I don't want to see you", but Priest Lorraine said "bastard" and "fuck you" when he opened his mouth. Very rude vocabulary for elves, which made me have serious doubts about the "Diana Continental History" I had read before.

Mel also seemed a little dazed, but he didn't say anything.

"Priest Lorraine." I suddenly remembered something more important, "Did you bring your cell phone?"

"I brought it." He took out his mobile phone from his priestly robe and threw it to me.

I thanked, called Jasmine and asked her to come over, and then we chatted with Priest Lorraine for a while, he recommended a few ice cream shops, and then he said that the temple had something to do and left first, he just left, Jasmine Just rushed over, according to my instructions, she came by car.

"Put these in your car first," I said.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa , terrified me and Mel, I thought she had finally turned into a real death banshee, Mel obviously thought she was under attack, and I saw him make the pre-cast gesture of absolute protection.

"What's your name! Very rude!" I criticized.

Jasmine covered her mouth with tears in her eyes, and said, "Teacher! You actually bought the most popular 'Dark Queen' pet spider this year! Wow! Teacher, you are amazing, I love you to death! And you actually bought There are so many, it’s great, can I help raise them? Your apprentices definitely take care of these beautiful spiders in every possible way!”

I frowned: "Silly boy, what are you talking about, these are newly bought experimental materials, you take them back and mash them while they are fresh, remember to wear gloves, otherwise the juice will be very painful when splashed on your body."

Jasmine looked at me with despair in the next moment, exactly the same as when I confiscated her novel and left her homework last time.

She held her head and screamed: "Oh my god, teacher, are you going to smash these cute little spiders?"

"How can you use it without mashing it?" I said, "Jasmine, always remember that you are an apprentice mage, and you can't always ask stupid questions over and over again. If you are still an assistant, I don't particularly care, but if You are my apprentice and still ask me this kind of layman's question, I will punish you for copying the spell book."

Jasmine clutched her heart, as if she would die in the next second.

"have you understood?"

Jasmine looked at those black widow spiders, and that expression made me feel that even if her teacher and I died suddenly on the spot, she might not necessarily show this expression.But she nodded obediently and said, "Yes, teacher, I will do well."

Mel looked at me with a bright smile: "Xi Pei, you are a strict and responsible teacher, no wonder your apprentices are also very well-behaved and sensible."
