Chapter 49: Generous Remuneration

Flint picked up the pearl and shined it against the bright moonlight, and commented with a smile: "The best pearl is worth at least three hundred gold duga, Sissy, Jerry, you guys are really generous."

When Joan heard that the pearl was worth 300 gold coins, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he carefully put the pearl in his pocket. After getting this pearl, his work was not in vain, and he was getting closer and closer to the goal of collecting enough tuition fees.

"Mr. Master, this is specially prepared for you."

Sissy opened another smaller coral box and handed it to Joan.

There are two parchment scrolls in the box, and the yellowed pages exude an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

After Qiao An thanked Sissy, she took the two parchment books and flipped through them, a strange gleam appeared in her eyes.

The first book is his long-awaited spell book. The original owner is not a great mage. There are a total of six low-level spells copied in the book, including three 0-level tricks, "Light", "Repair", etc. In addition, three first-level spells are recorded, namely "Magic Missile", "Electric Claw" and "Identification".

The other book is even more unusual. What is recorded is not spells, but a "Super Magic Upanishad" that optimizes the structure of spells, called "Guide to Spell Thrust". The research topic of this metamagic knowledge is very clear, which is to optimize the spells that originally need to contact the subject to be effective, so that they can extend the range of 5 feet without increasing the number of spell rings.

Joan had never learned contact arcane spells before, but the 1-ring evocation arcane spell "Electric Claw" recorded in the spell book just obtained happens to be such a spell, which can release an electric current the moment it touches an enemy, Deals electric shock damage.

Among the first-level spells, "Electric Claw" ranks among the top in terms of lethality, but the biggest drawback of this spell is that it needs to touch the enemy to take effect. If the opponent is a monster like a troll, and a weak mage has close contact with it, isn't this courting death? I'm afraid he was slapped and fell down before he touched the other party.

"Spell Spike" can just make up for the shortcomings of "Electric Claw" and similar spells. Although the range of 5 feet is not too long, at least it has more security than close touch.

Joan put the two books in his backpack, feeling happier than ever.

...

There might really be a law of "good intentions are rewarded" in the world. The thanks from Nick Jing and his brother had satisfied Joan so much that he forgot that there was another reward from Flint Anvil.

The next morning, after bidding farewell to Nick and brother and returning to Delin Town, Joan couldn't wait to study the newly acquired spell book behind closed doors until Tom broke in.

"Mr. Vida, my uncle sent me to find you."

Joan raised his head from the spell book and replied impatiently, "I'm not free now!"

"Then you'd better take some time off," Tom laughed a little strangely, "This is related to a commission worth 100 gold Duga and a gift that is more valuable than commission."

Hearing the word commission, Joan's ears immediately perked up. Silently put away the book, followed Tom to see Flint.

"Little guy, I want to thank you not only for your fulfillment of your promise to allow my iron forging workshop to reopen, but also for your courage, love and sense of responsibility in a series of events that you can use violent means to expel Nick Jing, ignore the difficulties of those two poor little waifs, and take the commission from me safely, but you did not make a selfish choice, but wrote to me to explain the truth, and took the initiative Propose to eliminate the water ghosts that pose a potential threat to this town, and help the wandering goblins regain their homes."

The old dwarf patted Joan on the shoulder, his eyes full of appreciation.

"My child, you are worthy of being the grandson of Guillaume Tell. Your noble behavior has broken my old concept of the mage group. Your grandfather has reason to be proud of you."

The old dwarf turned around, picked up a jingling purse, and stuffed it into Joan's hand.

"This is the agreed reward. In addition, I have an additional thank you gift."

The old dwarf opened a drawer and took out two books and a scroll.

"I heard that you like books very much? Then these gifts should not disappoint you."

Joan took the book and the scroll full of curiosity, and first unwrapped the scroll that exuded fluctuations in magic power. After a brief look, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the scroll contained a 1-ring arcane "magic weapon". This spell can temporarily upgrade ordinary weapons or armor to magical equipment. The higher the level of the caster, the higher the level of enchantment. In addition, this spell also plays a key role in the process of manufacturing magic weapons and armors. Keep it on weapons and armors to obtain magic weapons.

Joan then picked up the other two books presented by Flint, and the surprise in his heart immediately escalated into ecstasy. The two books were "Basic Enchanting" and "Introduction to Structural Science". The former is about the basic knowledge of making magic items , the latter teaches you how to make simple mechanical devices and low-level structures from scratch.

Dr. Galandil once warned Joan that mages should not only specialize in magic, but also apply what they have learned, and alchemy and pharmacy are important areas for applying magic. In fact, Dr. Galandil's words are not comprehensive. In addition to alchemy and pharmacy, the manufacture of magic devices and constructs is also an important field of magic application.

Qiao An actually wanted to get in touch with knowledge in the field of enchanting and construction for a long time, but unfortunately, he could not find a teacher and lacked self-study textbooks before. Now that he has received the two books presented by Flint and the textbooks, Joan naturally thought of a possibility.

"Mr. Flint, you are the most outstanding weapon design and forging master in the town. If I encounter difficulties in learning enchantment and construction, can I seek guidance from you?" Joan's voice trembled, full of expectation Watched the old dwarf.

Flint Anvil stroked his long beard, and rarely smiled on his serious face.

"I have quite a few students, but they are either blacksmiths or militiamen. Their brains are full of muscles. It's good to admit a smart student once in a while. Well, little guy, it's rare for you to be so self-motivated. You are welcome to forge at any time." Workshop, the door here is always open to you."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Flint!"

Joan quickly bowed deeply to the generous old dwarf in order to hide his over-excited emotions.
