Sorcerer's Survival Manual

The material of the magic crystal ball must be pure natural crystal. The crystal quality is more crystal clear, the better. If it has its own magic power, it is the best material for making it.

The price of rough crystal stones varies from low-grade rough stones priced at a few yuan per kilogram to high-quality rough stones priced in grams. What Ansair wants is the kind of pure crystal rough stones without cotton wool inside, and crystals with magic power are even more expensive. It is more expensive than diamonds.

Crystals with magic power are very rare in this world. Many people think that wearing crystals with magic power is good for the body, so such crystals are not only expensive, but also the finished products that can be found on the market have been carefully carved. Such finished products are There is no way to make a magic crystal ball.

And what they are looking for is the raw ore that has not been carved at all.

There are very few crystal mines in Yunxi Province, and the reserves are not rich. Most of them have been mined. Now there is only one small mining area that is still being mined. I heard that it specializes in producing transparent, colorless, clear and transparent white crystal. Top quality and just what they need.

The crystal mine is on a hill outside Yunxi City, where there are no mutant beasts. It is said that after the ore is mined, this hill will be demolished to build a residential area to meet the increasing housing needs of Yunxi City.

For this trip, there are only two people, Ansair and Igova. Since Ansair has neither a driver's license nor can drive, the driver is naturally Igova, and Ansair is sitting in the passenger seat and looking at the map on his mobile phone. , found that the crystal mining area and the zoo are in two directions, and the distance is farther than the zoo. They may not be able to reach the zoo after dark.

Without much thought, Ansair asked Igova to go to the mining area first. It didn't matter if it was delayed for one night. At worst, he just rested in the car, and even if he drove there overnight, it didn't matter. Fatigue driving?nonexistent.

It was the first time for them to use human transportation. Fortunately, they had the double protection of car navigation and mobile map, and there was no problem of driving the wrong way along the way, and they arrived at the crystal mining area smoothly.

Buyers often come to the crystal mine to buy goods, so the arrival of the two did not cause any sensation, at most, because of their outstanding appearance, people can't help but take a few more glances.

They got out of the car, asked all the way, and soon found the person in charge.

After the other party asked about their needs, they took them to the warehouse.

"All the high-quality ones are here. You should look at them first, and then discuss the price if you like them."

This warehouse is full of mined rough stones, and the quality is really good, but Ansair only took a glance and found that there are real and fake rough stones, natural crystals, but cultured crystals (artificial crystals) and glass There are also many fakes.

He casually picked up a fake raised crystal that could be faked, with a look of displeasure on his young face: "Boss, you must be honest when doing business, and this kind of raised crystal is sold as a natural rough stone, isn't it a bit strange?" Inappropriate?"

The person in charge originally saw that the two of them didn't seem to be knowledgeable at a young age, so he took a trick to bring them to this half-true warehouse. He didn't expect him to be so young, but his vision Well, I can tell the authenticity at a glance, so I just laughed and said: "The customer is joking, I don't have any fake products here, it's just to meet the needs of different customers, some customers come here specially to buy this kind. "

So it's not that he is fooling customers, it's just the market demand. As for people who don't know how to buy fake ones, it can only be blamed on his own vision.

Ansair didn't expect the other party to refute so brazenly after his tricks were exposed. He felt very uncomfortable, but because he didn't know how to quarrel, he could only snort angrily, and turned his head to continue picking rough crystals.

He chooses rough crystals regardless of their size, but only their appearance. These rough stones will be refined to remove impurities after they are brought back, and the extracted essence will be pressed into the shape of a crystal ball. The magic circle and magic patterns are engraved, and the final product is the magic crystal ball, the magician's spell-casting tool.

However, when using such a magic crystal ball, you must be careful about injecting mana, otherwise it will crack if it exceeds the critical point, and even if you are careful, the lifespan of the crystal ball will generally not exceed ten years.

But if you use pure magic crystals to make crystal balls, the mana threshold of this type of crystal balls is a hundred times higher than that of ordinary crystal magic balls, and it will not break after hundreds of years. A few bottles of magic balls, if they are well maintained, it will be no problem to accompany him for the rest of his life.

Of course, his current lifespan is 1 years as a demigod. If he transcends to become a god, his lifespan will increase, and he will still need to change the crystal ball in the future.

Ansair's eyesight is very accurate, he can tell at a glance whether the rough stones on the shelf are real or not, and when he sees the real rough stones that match the quality, he takes them down and gives them to Egova, who helps him Put the selected rough stones into a pile, and after he finished picking and picking, a hill had already been piled up on the ground.

The person in charge who was originally careless saw it as an eye-opener. There were many people who came to him to pick rough stones, but he picked them so fast and accurately that he didn't get a single fake one. That was definitely the only one. portion.

This time, he also put away his previous contempt, knowing that he was wrong.

When Ansair brought the last piece of suitable rough stone, the person in charge said with a smile: "The two guests, do you want to go to another warehouse to have a look? There are still a lot of good goods there."

"No need, these are enough." Ansair ignored him with a cold face, and signaled Igova to lower the price with him.

Since the other party is not benevolent, they don't have to be polite. Naturally, the price can be as low as possible, and there is such a cheating weapon as mind reading, are they afraid that they will be cheated?

Yi Gewa, who had always had no sense of presence, let go of his aura, which made the person in charge feel weak. He even bit the price in his mouth, and cold sweat broke out on his head.

After some bargaining, Igova bought the batch of rough stones at an extremely low price that made the person in charge feel heartbroken—it was so heartbreaking that he wanted to say no to selling it several times, and the other party seemed to know what he wanted, as long as When he was about to say no, those golden eyes looked at him with the eyes of a large carnivore looking at its prey, so scared that he could only swallow his words back.

Seeing the other party deflated, Ansair finally let go of the suffocation he had just held in his heart, smiled at Igova with bright eyes, and paid the money readily, while staring at the people in the mining area who helped him pack the boxes Moving the goods - it is obviously not the first time that the person in charge here has done this kind of deceitful business. Who can guarantee that his subordinates will not play tricks when packing the boxes.

The mining area is really planning to do this. The real products they put in the warehouse have replicas. When they sold them, they sold the real products, and then secretly changed them while the customers were not paying attention. When they brought them back, they found that the products were wrong. If you come to find them again, they will never recognize you.

Maybe they will be beaten up, saying that if they bought it, they would use fake ones to frame their mining area, anyway, they were indeed genuine when they sold it.

Who can tell by then?

This kind of thing has happened before, and it can be said that it is their usual trick.

Today, the person in charge suffered a big loss and wanted to win back a city, but no matter what excuse he used to get the person away so that the subordinates could start to drop the package, Ansair just didn't leave, and the others didn't leave when they saw the buyer. A pair of eyes were still staring at them, so naturally he didn't dare to mess around, so he packed the goods obediently and sent them to their car.

Seeing that they were going to leave soon, the person in charge quickly persuaded them: "Guests, it's dark today, and the road is not easy to walk. The road outside our mining area is dilapidated and has several bends. , It’s not easy to leave at night. In the past, unfamiliar customers often went back in the middle of the night and had car accidents. It’s so dangerous, isn’t it? If you want me to say, why don’t you just stay with us for one night before leaving? We don’t think it’s a mining area. There is also a small hotel above, although the facilities are average, but it is guaranteed to be clean!"

The person in charge had a look of worry on his chubby face, as if he was planning for them, and there was nothing wrong with it at all, but Ansair had an intuition that he had bad intentions, and he didn't want to stay here at all.

But before he opened his mouth to refuse, Igova had already agreed one step ahead of him: "Okay, let's stay for one night and leave tomorrow."

"Do not……"

Egova stopped him and gave him a calm look.

As soon as the person in charge heard this, he happily expressed that he would take them to the hotel.

This small hotel is really not big, only three floors high, with a total of about ten rooms. People are estimated to be some kind of relatives.

The accommodation conditions were indeed not good, but fortunately the room was fairly clean. Ansair had even lived in the hospital dormitory in Anping Town, so it was natural that he would not be able to live here.

It’s just that the price of such a small shop is not lower than that of an ordinary room in a Samsung hotel. If the two of them book two rooms, they will be taken advantage of, so they only booked a double room, and the boss gave it an eight. fold.

Ansair went through the formalities at the counter, and the person in charge rubbed his hands aside and said, "Why don't you leave your things in the hotel? There are also people on duty here at night, who can help you look after the goods."

While filling out the register, Ansair said, "Isn't it the same if you put it in the car? The car is parked at the door, so if someone is on duty, you can see it."

"This is not the same." The person in charge shook his head: "The gate is closed after twelve o'clock, and there is no surveillance outside. There have been cars parked outside that were pried away before. It's not safe for you to leave it there. .”

Ansair stopped writing, frowned and asked, "There are still car thieves here?"

The person in charge quickly waved his hand: "It's not car thieves. These people usually don't steal cars, they just steal the contents of the car, and take whatever is valuable, especially the crystals bought by customers. You bought so many high-quality crystals today. It might be their target."

He still disdains in his heart, as for that broken car, I don’t know if it can be sold for [-] to [-] second-hand. Whoever steals it, but that box of crystals is worth millions even if the price is lowered. .

So no matter what, he had to replace some, otherwise his loss would be huge.

He thought, if these two people disagree, he will really send someone to pick the car lock, and make some noise to scare them without actually doing it, and then the two people will not be able to move their things in?

And when he moved into the hotel, the shop owner could help him do it without him doing it himself.

"It turned out that the crime was committed by a gang."

Igova left a meaningful sentence, turned around, walked to the car parked outside the door, and opened the trunk.

The person in charge thought they were being persuaded to store the goods in the hotel, so he was excited and followed them out with a smile on his face: "This thing is heavy, so I'll have someone carry it in for you?"

"No need." Yi Gewa didn't even look at him, bent down, and dragged out the box weighing hundreds of kilograms, and then carried it into the store with the person in charge staring at him dumbfounded.

Contrary to what the person in charge thought, Yi Gewa did not stay in the hotel lobby, but directly carried his things to the stairs—the room they booked was on the upper floor.

When Igova's figure disappeared at the stairs, Ansair took the room key and smiled at the person in charge and the store owner: "Since it's not safe, we'd better take care of it ourselves, don't you think?"
